LinkedIn is providing more visibility to job seekers by adding new ways to highlight key skills on LinkedIn.
First off, LinkedIn’s added a new element to the “About” section on member profiles which will now enable you to tag up to five of your top skills. As you can see in the example below, now, at the footer of your About section, you can highlight your top skills to make it easier for visitors to get a quick idea of your competencies.
LinkedIn’s also added the capacity to include media-rich content in the “Projects” section, while you can also now tag projects with skills, providing another way to showcase your experience.
In the words of LinkedIn –
“For example, if you’re a photographer, you might link out to a website featuring your online portfolio and tag hard skills such as Adobe Photoshop and soft skills like Communication or Collaboration.”
“For example, when you tag skills on content you feature in the Projects section, recruiters will be able to see those projects as they view your skills.”
These New Ways To Highlight Key Skills On LinkedIn could help job seekers better showcase their capabilities, while also providing more contextual markers on LinkedIn, helping to maximise utility.
