"Arguably, the most important part of your online profile is your Headline. This is the first thing everyone sees once they visit your page, and there are multiple ways to organize it. One great way is from JobScan, in their How to Write Your LinkedIn Headline (With 20 Examples) article. Essentially, you order your Headline in this way: [Current Role/Profession] | [Primary Skills/Areas of Expertise] | [Unique Value] | [Notable Achievement] | [Personal Passion or Career Goal]"
"No.2 Personal LinkedIn URL If you plan to put your LinkedIn profile at the top of your resume, you'll want a recognizable URL. Something that alerts employers that you know what you're doing, and that you took the extra time to change something so seemingly small. In reality, your URL is the gateway to your LinkedIn profile, and if the link looks suspicious, people may be hesitant to click on it."
A strong LinkedIn headline should combine current role, primary skills, unique value, notable achievements, and career passions in a concise, keyword-rich format. Separating headline elements with emojis can improve readability and visual distinction. A customized LinkedIn URL creates a professional impression and increases trust when included on resumes or applications. A clear, recognizable URL reduces hesitation for potential employers to click through. High-quality profile photos and professional headshots contribute to credibility and first impressions. Prioritizing these profile elements enhances discoverability, communicates strengths quickly, and supports effective personal branding for networking and job searches.
