Connect With Corporate Recruiters
Recruiters search the LinkedIn database in several different ways. If you want to stand out from the other candidates and engage the interest of the recruiters then this article may help you. Being a recruiter, we get hundreds of requests per day and multiple applications on our job postings. It is generally not possible for us to go through these many profiles every day.
We generally do an initial screening from the profile headline. We open a profile only if it is suitable and matches the requirement. Then we skim the profile for a maximum of 6 seconds before going ahead.

“So then, let’s see what you can do to get a recruiter’s attention and get calls from multiple companies.”
Good Headline
- Your headline is your selling point in the search results.
- Be thoughtful about what you write here. Your headline will influence whether the recruiter will open your profile or not.
- Mention relevant keywords in the headline to boost your profile in search results.
- Recruiters mostly search using keywords and so mentioning your top skills here will help.
Complete Profile
- Make sure to have a complete profile with all the relevant sections filled.
- Make sure that your profile includes keywords that the recruiters might be searching for.
- About Section: Add your achievements and other selling points in your about section. Keep it concise.
- Education Section: Always add your education in the correct format. Add the original college page to make your profile visible when the recruiter does an alumni search.
- Skill Section: Add all the skills that you have expertise in and get endorsements from relevant people. This will help your profile appear when the recruiter does a skill search. Make sure to have a complete profile with all the relevant sections filled.
