This is all so overwhelming. I feel like I just started out my career path. Being visible on LinkedIn is all so new to me
I can understand that. To be honest, it’s a lot of information but the stuff is really basic, and you can always customize it to how you want. No need to add pressure to yourself. See what works for you!
@marthachitika3548 I feel you.
Do only a few of the tips that are actionable and relevant to where you at, the rest will grow with time. Tweaking your linkedin is an ongoing journey as you develop, it's not a one time thing. So just start with the basics, photo, headline, connections and then spend time on the platform to gradually learn from others
I am so glad I'm not the only one. I see your comment is dated 1 yr ago, may I ask how it's going? Tell me it gets easier?? 🤞🙏
I agree. It’s all so fake.
Very comprehensive video. Added to my job-hunting playlist, thanks Sakura!
This has to be the most helpful video on optimizing your LinkedIn profile that I have found. Straight and to the point. I found your tips very helpful. Thank you!
Very helpful thank you for making this video!
very clear and comprehensive tips!
This is great!!!!! I literally know all these things, but it's different when you are promoting yourself. Gratitude!!!
Great tips!! Thanks for that
informative and so helpful! Thanks a lot 🙌
Informative, genuine, and actionable.
Liked, saved, and subscribed!
Amazing tips! Can't wait to try them. Thank you!
Simple and easy to follow. Thank you! I used to get a ton of hits but it has slowed down a little due to increased competition. I’ll def be updating my LI this week.
Great Video. Thanks for the insights.
Fantastic video, thank you!
Thank you for this video. It was most helpful. Got some useful tips.
Fantastic guide. She speaks from a recruiter point of view and how can candidates optimize for maximum results.
Very helpful, thank you!
this is a great video. No garbage things and straight to the point
Thank you for this.
Well said...
Your video provides valuable guidance and encouragement. Keep up the excellent work!
Great information. Thank you for your help.
This is very specific with great recommendations, thank you! I often get people on LI pitching me to do business with them and I don't know them. No indication of any interest in what I do other than them making money for things I'm clearly not interested in. For example, getting a pitch for paid help to get my "first book published" when I have 5 books published. I have 500 plus connections and would like to grow more and be attractive to people coming to me for reasons other than pitching me on their new business ideas which are like spam to me as I don't know their work. Suggestions? You do have wonderful advice and I'm impressed with your style and content.
Very well presented
very informative video, Sakura, thank you!!!
I know you quickly touched on this, but I just wanted to confirm again, should the 'job experience' section contain the bullet points of the tasks we did at the company? (just the way it appears on a resume?)
Wow this is an awesome video! Thank you
Great video. Thanks for the advice. I just subscribed 😊
Great Video Mam!!!
Thank you so much for this. I never knew these things know I why i'm not getting any hits
thanks . this was so helpful ..... I have not touched my linked in for years. I think i could do with some updating ....
I love your video is very helpful. I got many tips that I applied
Great information thanks!
Good information. Really good, actionable tips. Thank you!
I would love to see another video, where you show us some more of what the RECRUITER's view/interface looks like, how it functions, and how they use it. The info you gave us about how the algorithm works, and how recruiters are able to search/filter candidates, is great.
I second that!
Your videos are always so helpful and insightful. Loved it!!
Awesome content..thanks
Helped a ton, thank you!!
so glad to hear!
Thank you so much!! This video is really helpful. Would love if you could make a video about how to network or how to text strangers on LinkedIn especially recruiters.
This was so helpful, thank you and thank you again. Post new videos; you are doing great. I will come back for more. ❤
You’re very welcome ☺️
Thank you very much
Thanks for the video! My profile contains most of the aspects you suggested already. I get really frustrated when recruiters approach me about positions that obviously don’t fit within my field or qualifications, which has been happening a lot lately. ☹️
Thanks for the tips, been applying for jobs in LinkedIn for 4 months without any calls or interview and applied for more than 200 jobs till now. Hope things get better after following the optimization techniques.
how did it go
@@LevePalestinaForever well I had only one interview but not from LinkedIn
@@LevePalestinaForever I just had only one interview in Jan then nothing after that.
Good
Thank you so much for the video I will be following these steps but my only concern is that I have no work experience besides inservice training. 🤦🏽♀️ I’ve been job hunting since 2020 till date, no call back, no interview invitation even for internships…
Hopefully your tips will make a difference on my profile. Once again thank you 🙏🏽
Great content! Could you do a video where you analyze your own résumé?
ooo love this idea, thanks for the suggestion!
This was really helpful information direct to the point, but in my case and i'm guessing many others, who are starting out and lack those work experience/recommendations it feels hard to get noticed. Have acquired qualifications now but after twenty years of being a carer, there is nothing to show for it on paper that can make me even be noticed or taken seriously as opposed to my peers at this stage. How can those like me, or career changers, stahp etc coming back/to the scene get to improve their pages to become noticed and approached by hiring managers or recruiters?
It's really tough
Being a caregiver has so many job functions. Make a list including compassionate customer care, customized meal preparation, mobility assistance, transportation, wound care, great communication (and any other responsibilities). Don't forget some referrals
I would add changing your status to "open for work", speaking as a recruiter/headhunter for over 20 years. Also if you're hopping jobs every few years you better have a legitimate reason other wise companies will not be interested no matter what school you graduated from or what experience you have. Great video!
I actually cover Open to work around 7:08! Thank you :)
Thoughts on Notion pages as websites?
I am getting back into the job market , and I have many skills and I don’t know what I want to do. How can one showcase your abilities ?
Superb !
Mam how to get interview & grab job my 1st job after 4 yrs of gap due to family reasons ? I have completed my engineering with internship also in Aec construction industry so now trying to convince the recruiters how to get the work with proper answers about the gap years as it should not sound unprofessional in any way ? Which books would help in the situation..
That was quite resourceful @Sakurambo . Thanks
Hey! This was a great video! I wanted to know if recruiters looking for freelancers use the same method. I am looking to attract clients with my profile rather than the average inhouse recruiter. Is the process the same or is there anything that I should add?
Thanks!
Oh this is a fantastic question - I actually don't have experience with that so I can't say for sure. I think freelancers are usually hired through different sites like Fiverr or Upwork, or through agencies & connections, so maybe widening your platforms may be a good idea. Otherwise, honestly I think this advice may fall a little flat for you because I focused on the basics: making yourself marketable in general, rather than building a brand and standing out. It's a good place to start, but you I assume should focus on building relationships. Hope it helps!
@@Sakurambo thank you for getting back to me! I’ll do that and see how it goes!
@@Sakurambo Hey again! I have another question! I watched a recruiter on TH-cam say that you should cold email companies that have no job openings because the competition is less and they may have a positions. How would you tell that a company is opening to hiring without them explicitly posting a job offer? Thanks
Sakura: this video is very helpful. I do have a current profile photo on LinkedIn, however a concern of mine is that of ageism. Yes it shows I am a real person, but it also shows my age. Any thoughts on this?
It shouldn’t and if a company checks age, that talks about them, you shouldn’t work for them. As for nice pictures, look up icon accidental, she is such an inspiration to showcase a fresh spirit regardless of age
Ok, but I’m not a social media type of person and I rarely have connections as they see me as a direct competition due to, let’s say, politics.
Any chance?
Ahhh... a former recruiter huh? You got the cheat codes I've been looking for
THANKS
This is all great advice for those who have years of experience in the field they are in. However, this doesn't work for career changers with transferable skills. No recruiter is going to see beyond my lack of experience, despite having a wealth of transferable skills.
0:54 "I am going to lie..." 🤨
Is writing a post regularly also help boost your search on LinkedIn?
From my research, yes, since it makes your account "active"
Having all these features on my profile, but recruiters don't even answer my messages, let alone being contacted by recruiters first-hand.
They don't even read the resumes that are already sent to them.
Someone with 15 years experience in cloud probably invented it 😂
So basically they are looking to steal experienced professionals who have been loyal to a successful company... makes sense aha. I feel like if you only have educational experience and are looking for a job in a field that you have no job experience in than your chances of getting contacted by a recruiter are very low... which is unfortunate because that is when you need them the most ! Ah, the irony of life.
None of this will help if there is crazy competition for your niche. Recruiters are flooded with qualified candidates. I have done all these steps and never been contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn after 1200+ apps.
So this method of hiring essentially promotes nepotism. Got it.
How do i get YOU in my DMs tho? 😉
Thanks for this videos. Let's work together.
