I contend your LinkedIn Profile is even more important than your resume. Why? For starters, your LinkedIn profile is more robust than your resume. You can add multimedia, join professional organizations, list more accomplishments, among other features. More importantly, you can display others' recommendations for you and their endorsements, which carry more weight. It’s also something that is dynamic and shows what you’re doing now. You can use it daily and leave a digital footprint, all while building your personal brand. It’s the living, breathing version of your resume. Finally, when you apply for jobs through LinkedIn, the person viewing your application will see a breakdown of how your profile aligns with the job description, including your skills. While you have limited space on a resume to list your skills, you can incorporate keywords throughout your profile as well as in your Skills & Endorsements profile section. Plus, when you apply for jobs with a Premium LinkedIn account, you can see how you compare to other candidates and how many people have applied. In some cases, applying won’t be worth your time.

In this Express to Impress Podcast episode, you will learn how to write about yourself on LinkedIn so that recruiters and employers discover you. You'll learn common mistakes and how to correct them, so you write a LinkedIn Profile that stands out. Specifically, you'll learn how to write a keyword-rich headline and summary, choose the right professional profile photo, and select skills to feature in the Skills & Endorsements section. At the end of the episode, you'll learn definitions for English idioms and phrases.

How to Write a LinkedIn Profile That Stands Out

(A)  Zum zehnten Mal wurde DIESER TAGE das Ergebnis einer Untersuchung zum Glücksgefühl vieler Nationen veröffentlicht. TROTZ großer Krisen in den vergangenen drei Jahren ist das Glücksempfinden in den meisten Bevölkerungen stabil geblieben. 

(B) Interessanterweise finden sich in den nordeuropäischen Ländern Finnland, Dänemark und Island die meisten GLÜCKLICHEN Leute: Diese Länder belegen die ersten drei Plätze des Weltglücksberichts. Deutschland hingegen findet man an 16. Stelle.  

(C) Die Forscher haben sechs Schlüsselfaktoren gefunden, an denen sich das nationale Glücksgefühl eines Landes festmachen lässt: Soziale Unterstützung, Einkommen, Gesundheit, Freiheit, Großzügigkeit und Abwesenheit von Korruption. Es wäre interessant zu erfahren, welche dieser Faktoren die Deutschen heutzutage vermissen, denn im Glücksbericht vom Jahr 2020 stand Deutschland noch auf Platz 7.
