3 LinkedIn Tools to Help You Show Up More in Search

LinkedIn and its LinkedIn Recruiter solution are both platforms used by hiring professionals to search for qualified candidates. With the rise of AI and the fact that there are close to 800M users on the platform, the platform has become increasingly algorithm-driven as a way to “whittle down” search.

Keywords (in this case Key Skills) are a critical factor in how LinkedIn’s algorithm ranks candidates. In plain speak, this means to increase your visibility, profile optimization is more important than ever and is a bit part of my LinkedIn writing service.

In this week’s podcast, I walk through 3 of my favorite tools for helping ensure my client’s profile are search-optimized.

Be sure to check out my April 2023 blog post that contains step-by-step screenshots designed to help you use these 3 tools.

There are few things more confusing for job seekers than the role that Applicant Tracking System (ATS) software plays in the screening process, and how exactly ATS reads resumes that get submitted.
It is often a reason why people seek help with writing their resumes!

To make it even more confusing, as technology continues to evolve, so too do ATS systems.

In this episode, Virginia shares an overview of what ATS was designed to do, how it worked then and now, and what it all means for job seekers today.

4 TAKEAWAYS:

− Careers can be twisty and turny and that’s OK.

− Don’t be afraid to make bold asks. They can say no but might say yes.

− It’s OK to take a job that meets a short-term goal.

− Strive for roles that work in the moment, recognizing that as your life evolves so might your jobs.
