LinkedIn is no exception. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a vast network with over 900 million accounts. So, some bad actors are bound to slip through the net.

Even if you have a professional profile picture and your basic information is up to date, it might not be enough to differentiate you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try some of these approaches to optimise your profile for more hits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"arrow-wrapper\"><div class=\"arrow-list\"><ul><li><strong>Include \u201c#OpenToWork\u201d <\/strong>in your bio.<\/li><li><strong>Add keywords related to your industry<\/strong> or the job you want, but avoid meaningless buzzwords.<\/li><li><strong>Improve your headline<\/strong> by making it more than a job title by adding a little personality and putting those 220 characters to work.<\/li><li><strong>Add a customised background photo<\/strong> (choose an image that\u2019s 396 pixels high and 1584 pixels wide).<\/li><li><strong>Swap your summary<\/strong> for a more creative story version.<\/li><li><strong>Write articles <\/strong>to demonstrate your knowledge and experience.<\/li><li><strong>Obtain<\/strong> more high-quality endorsements.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Update Your Resume.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Update your resume every few months, including your LinkedIn resume.
