Opt for a perfect profile picture
When we enter your LinkedIn profile, the first thing we will see will be your profile picture. To get off to a flying start, you will therefore have to opt for a perfect profile photo. It will therefore be necessary to say goodbye to photos of holidays, babies or cute animals and choose something more "professional".
What is the perfect LinkedIn profile picture?
Well, to begin with, the ideal would be to choose a photo on a white background or a black background. Your profile will already be much more credible. Then, you will have to pay attention to your outfit, it must be sober and professional. No way to wear a candy pink T-shirt on your LinkedIn profile picture. A nice white shirt, loose and well cut can be more than enough.
Also, it will be necessary to pay particular attention to the quality of the photos. The times we live in now allow us to have quality photos just with a good smartphone. But to put the odds on your side, we advise you to go to a talented portrait photographer.

Have an attractive slogan
At the bottom of your profile picture, a short description about you appears. By default, LinkedIn assumes this to be your current position and employer. Of course, this part of your profile is customizable. By the way, did you know that even your URL is customizable ?
So, to have a perfect profile, we suggest you go for something more attractive.
For example, if you specialize in digital marketing, putting Marketing Manager specializing in digital strategy and social media would be much more interesting than putting “Community Manager for…). Otherwise, to sound a little more “fancy”, you can also put this information in English. Your profile will be more than perfect.
To have more visibility, you can also bet on keywords targeting a particular area.
Carefully write your LinkedIn description
In addition to your profile photo and your slogan, you will also need to take care of your LinkedIn description. Indeed, it will be the third thing your visitors will read if your profile has managed to arouse their interest.
So, to continue on this same momentum, we will have to write this part carefully.
In this part, you will have to explain your professional objectives, your skills and what sets you apart from others.
You can choose to write it yourself.
Otherwise, if you don't have a good pen, we suggest that you call on a writer who specializes in the subject. It will thus be able to use keywords to generate more traffic on your profile, while making it much more attractive to visitors.
In addition, to make this presentation part even more interesting, you also have the option of shooting a short video for your LinkedIn profile. Thus, in the eyes of visitors, it may be even more interesting.
Provide maximum skills on your profile
In order to enrich your profile as much as possible, we also suggest that you note the maximum number of skills you have. In this way, recruiters will be able to have a complete overview of what you can offer them. This will make the recruiters in question naturally attracted to your profile.
Of course, you will have to be careful not to lie about the information given.
Also, always with the idea of enriching your profile, we advise you to provide as much information as possible about yourself. In particular your training and past experiences. Thus, recruiters will not have to go and consult your CV. Or on the contrary, will want to know a little more about you via your CV.
Also, consider putting your resume on LinkedIn .
Join interesting and well-targeted groups
Otherwise, to have a little more connections and therefore have a much more visible profile and a better chance of getting hired , we also suggest that you join groups on LinkedIn. Indeed, being an extremely complete platform, on LinkedIn, you have the possibility of integrating groups specialized in a field.
For example, you will have the chance to find groups entirely dedicated to web writing, SEO optimization, human resources, etc. You will be able to make more connections with people who share the same passions as you.
