LinkedIn Basics: Set Up & Stand Out!

Details

Your LinkedIn profile is more than an online resume. It's your digital first impression – is it making the right one? In just one hour, we'll cut through the noise and give you the actionable strategies to make LinkedIn your career superpower. Learn to craft a profile that tells your story, build a network that opens doors, and engage in a way that gets you noticed.
In this session, you’ll learn how to:

  • Set up and optimize your profile: choose a great photo, craft a compelling headline, and write an engaging summary that truly highlights your skills and sets you apart.
  • Highlight your experience and skills effectively: learn how to tell your story and showcase your background in a way that attracts the right opportunities.
  • Understand LinkedIn’s settings and privacy controls: take control of who sees your information and how you interact on the platform.
  • Make connections and engage with content: learn how to grow your network and start meaningful conversations.
