I think everyone on the planet has a linkedin profile, myself included. However, I have not done much with it besides create an account. With some extra time during my first week of school, I wanted to try to beef up my profile.
What I did
- Added work experience and skills
- I included soft skills and more technical ones
- Started watching Learning Linkedin (on linkedin learning)
- Change my profile and banner picture
- Eventually, I need to update my headshot
- Added my college details (degree type, AAS, awards, etc)
- Connected with classmates/previous classmates to expand my network
I’ll admit, I definitely need to learn more about how to manage my LinkedIn profile. But I have a great start and hopefully will have more to add in the next months before graduation!
How do you clean up your LinkedIn profile? Any tips or tricks?
