In this article Im going to present tips about how to present some of the important parts of your LinkedIn profile (for the general tips on how to edit your whole profile please read my previous article Updating your LinkedIn part1).

HEADLINE

Here is some strategy you can follow while writing your Headline:

• you are going after job role you want or already have
• use your market analyses keywords (to get keywords, you need to analyse 5-10 similar positions and write down 10-20 frequently used words - that's how i did that :)

Headline Formula could be like this (example):

1. Desired role or title:
   • Frontend Developer
2. What you will do in keywords:
   • CSS, HTML, JavaScript, React, Angular
3. What are you looking for:
   • Seeking entry level position in Boston
4. Optional
   • use compelling numbers (ex. generated over $100m with my software)
