Registration for this program is closed.   The next session will be offered on Thursday , March 12.

 

Creating a LinkedIn profile is a "must" particularly for job-seekers.  With 300 million profiles, it's no wonder that some employers don't even bother posting new openings anymore; instead, they search LinkedIn for potential candidates.

It's also a "must" that your profile capture the attention of decision-makers. Yet, over 50% of the profiles do not include a Summary -- 2,000 characters of prime real estate located below the Headline.  By skipping a Summary, you miss a great opportunity to differentiate yourself in a competitive job market. 

Register for this workshop to critique LinkedIn summaries which successfully incorporate specific techniques. For example, many start with a "hook," or use humor, or share an anecdote.  Others highlight accomplishments, or include a 3rd party testimonial.  Learn how to write a "call to action" and where to include your list of Key Words. 

Participants are encouraged to bring their own Summary -- if they have one.

 

Pre-registration is required.  Interested participants must email Sherry Natkow at snatkow@job-prep.com to enroll and receive additional information.
