I got my VP of Product job because of LinkedIn.
Don't let anyone tell you it isn't important.
All the best jobs? Like VP jobs?
They don't come from applying. They come from the company reaching out to YOU.
LinkedIn is how they find you.
Here are the 7 things to do to get jobs to come to you:
𝟭. 𝗨𝗽𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲
Use Nano Banana to create a professional profile picture for free! You have no excuse to make this pop.
𝟮. 𝗪𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗙𝗶𝘁
Don't just a catch all positioning and be boring:
a. Highlight where you are a unicorn
b. Call out all your big brands and experiences
More detail:
𝟯. 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
You want to have all of the following:
• Strong hook
• Proof in your experiences
• The skills you're great at
• Your call to action
𝟰. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻!
Most profiles don't even use this. Why?!
It's the third highest section!
Use it to flip your weaknesses.
Details:
𝟱. 𝗥𝗲𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘀
Don't have generic bullets, get deep and detailed.
This is the number one driver to increase profile views.
It's how recruiters find you!
Here's how:
𝟲. 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
Yes, people still care about this feature! If they see recommendations, they're also less likely to do back channels without asking you.
So it's insurance and helps you get more interviews.
Get 2 recommendations from each of your last 3 roles.
𝟳. 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 (𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗹𝘆)
Let's be honest: this is risky.
And you'll have to cross the valley of cringe.
But weekly posting is a proven technique to boost profile views and inbound DMs.
