Build a strong professional profile

Your professional profile is the main way employers evaluate you before making contact.

Complete the sections that accurately describe your experience, including your headline, introduction, work areas, skills, languages, location, work preferences, availability and expected compensation where requested.

Add professional media only when it improves an employer's understanding of your work. Keep your information current and avoid claims you cannot support.

A complete profile is easier to evaluate than a long profile. Focus on clear evidence of what you can do, the work you want and the conditions under which you can work effectively.
