How I Reworked My LinkedIn Profile to Get More Interviews

Turns out LinkedIn is important.

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t think that LinkedIn is cringe, so I never bothered investing efforts in it until my curiosity convinced me otherwise.

I got several interviews for several companies a week after my profile’s aesthetic lift, which really disappointed because it turned out that recruiters take LinkedIn seriously.

Anyway, here’s what I have done to polish my profile.

1. Add more experience

I have a bunch of work experiences in completely unrelated fields and didn’t think it was good to write them all.

But I was wrong. LinkedIn works like Google. It picks up keywords related to job skills. The more keywords you have, the better it is.

So I added more experience which also made me appear more qualified and experienced.

2. Rework the job description with ChatGPT

Each of my job experiences has a clear bullet-point list description with the goals I have achieved and the skills I have learned.

I wrote the draft myself then reworked it with ChatGPT and edited it to take out the AI-sounding style.
