[Do the quick quiz] Will your LinkedIn profile actually you get hired?

Truthfully now.

Have you copied your resume directly into LinkedIn and secretly hoped that’s all it took to get a tap on the shoulder by a headhunter?

Or have you looked at what other people in similar positions have written and copied the bits that sounded impressive across to your own profile?

Maybe you’ve had something up there untouched for years now, because the thought of writing about yourself makes you cringe a little.

If it helps you to know this, that’s what many people do – so no need to be too embarrassed!

The bad news is that these type of shenanigans won’t do too much to help you get hired.

So I have developed a quick research-backed quiz based (based on LinkedIn’s own research and big data), so you can learn a few things about what’s been proven to make a difference to whether a recruiter will:

a) find your profile

b) click on your profile

c) want to talk to you

d) call you about a job

Well, let’s remove all the guess work and start with finding out what LinkedIn’s own research and what big data research says about how to attract the right sort of attention.

I’ve developed a quick quiz with research backed data to help you make some easy fixes to get you started on the right footing.

Take the test below and I’ll send you some answers to help you make some tweaks to help you get hired faster

That’s the end of my rant for now.
