By Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter
Looking to supercharge your job hunt? Your LinkedIn #OpenToWork post is a prime opportunity to grab recruiters’ attention and increase your visibility. But you can’t just wing it – this post needs to be a masterpiece.
Here are 7 pro tips to make your #OpenToWork post an absolute showstopper:
- Get Crystal Clear on Your What Your Ideal Job Is Before you start writing, do some serious soul-searching. What are your must-haves for your next role? Make a detailed list covering everything from job titles and responsibilities to company culture and work arrangements. Don’t hold back!
- Ooze Positive Energy
We get it, you might be feeling salty about your last gig. But venting about your former employer is an instant turn-off for recruiters. They want candidates who are upbeat, eager to dive into something fresh. So dust off those rose-colored glasses and let that sunny disposition shine! - Stand Out From the Crowd Using LinkedIn’s #OpenToWork template is the professional equivalent of rocking up to an interview in sweats. You’ll blend into the sea of sameness. This is your chance to craft a truly distinctive post that grabs attention!
- Brag Employers want to know you’ll deliver results. Don’t just list your skills and experience – sell them! Highlight your top accomplishments and make those achievements sizzle. Include tangible proof like links to your portfolio or samples of your work.
- Drive Recruiter Action Your #OpenToWork post should work tirelessly for you. Optimize it with relevant hashtags like #[YourIndustry]Jobs to get maximum visibility. And make sure to include a powerful call-to-action inviting recruiters to connect!
- Back It Up An outstanding #OpenToWork post deserves an equally stellar LinkedIn profile. After revamping your post, give your profile a polish – packing it with those same juicy keywords and accomplishments.
- Be a Stellar Network Citizen To truly thrive on LinkedIn, give as good as you get. Shout out your connections’ #OpenToWork posts, endorse their skills, and share opportunities. Your generosity will inspire others to champion your job search!
With these insider tips, your #OpenToWork post won’t just get noticed – it’ll be an undeniable showstopper that positions you as an absolute must-hire talent!
