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.

Speaker: Princess Elizabeth was born in London in 1926. She grew up in London with her younger sister and they were educated at home. She was not expected to become queen when she was born, but in 1936, her uncle King Edward VIII gave up the throne and her father became King George the Sixth. As she had no brothers, Elizabeth would become the next ruler.

Speaker: In 1947, she got engaged to her third cousin, Philip Mountbatten. In 1952, while she was visiting Kenya, the death of King George was announced, and Elizabeth returned immediately to England. She was crowned at Westminster Abbey on the second of June, 1953. For the first time ever, the ceremony was shown on TV and watched by millions of people around the world.

Speaker: Elizabeth’s role as queen was mostly ceremonial: she opened Parliament, met government ministers and signed new laws. However, she was not allowed to express her own political opinions. She also represented Great Britain abroad, visiting countries in the Commonwealth and other nations around the world. The Queen was always instantly recognizable in her classic outfit of matching dress, coat, hat and handbag.

Speaker: Elizabeth loved dogs - corgis were her favorite breed. She also bred and raced horses. Every year at Christmas, the Queen spoke to the nation on TV. In 1992, she described a particularly difficult year, as several of her children’s marriages broke up and a fire destroyed part of her home in Windsor Castle.

Speaker: Elizabeth celebrated many anniversaries and became the longest serving king or queen in British history. Some people felt that a royal family was too expensive for the country, so after 2012, she reduced spending and received less money from the government. Many people continued to find the royal family interesting, as shown by the popularity of TV shows about the Queen and her family, such as The Crown.

Speaker: Philip died in 2021 and the Queen died a year later. Her son became King Charles the Third...
