    LinkedIn for Job seekers - Finding a job on LinkedIn - How to succeed your LinkedIn Job Hunt
    Many jobseekers don’t maximize LinkedIn to help them find the job they need. Instead, they copy and paste their resume and hope they magically will be contacted with job offers. Here’s some bad news: it’s not going to happen.
    This video presents 5 strategies each of which will bring you one step closer to a new job-or new career.
    One important last tip. Never say you’re seeking new opportunities.
    Most experts agree that you should not mention your job search in your LinkedIn profile-especially if you’re employed. Recruiters don’t use terms like job seeker in their searches. So it makes no sense doing that. Another reason: putting “looking for a new opportunity” in your profile makes you look maybe a little desperate.

    Thank you for this concise guide, I’m new to the job search myself and your breakdown was incredibly helpful 🙏.
    Although, I do have one question: at 2:52 the example profile said “seeking entry-level…” while at 7:16 you also mentioned that you should never put “looking for…” or “seeking…” in the LinkedIn? How should a student go about this?

    • @ExpertEnglish
      @ExpertEnglish  2 місяці тому +1

      As a student it's ok to mention "looking for" or "seeking ..." not so much for people who already have a job and are looking for new opportunities. You can always experiment with different approaches and adjust your LinkedIn profile based on your evolving job search strategy and professional goals. Hope this helps!

Could you explain the pro's and con's about why we shouldn't put out that we look for a job (besides looking desperate)?

    • @ExpertEnglish
      @ExpertEnglish  2 роки тому

      What employers are looking for (besides experience) is also for qualities like attitude, passion, teamplay etc... So if you were member (or had a leading role) in a youth movement or an association, mention that. Be specific, tell a story. Explain why you would make a great co-worker.

  • @user-xw9nv9iv1p
    @user-xw9nv9iv1p 3 роки тому +1

    Yes. I have this doubt if employers look out for candidates who are currently working or for those who are seeking to work. In LinkedIn, there has been this click option, for those who are without job, "Open to work"..When someone clicks on it. that tag "open to work" is shown up on the profile and a pre-filled message comes along with it. Is that appropriate?

    • @ExpertEnglish
      @ExpertEnglish  3 роки тому +2

      Even if you really need a job, announcing it so publicly might actually be hurting your job search efforts. Having a more 'carefree' profile will help you secure the interview, and playing a little hard to get will make potential employers consider you as more of a catch. It's your choice.

    • @ExpertEnglish
      @ExpertEnglish  2 роки тому +1

      It can look a bit desperate or needy. In my experience if your profile matches a recruiter's need they will contact you regardless of wether you have the 'open to work' badge or not. More important than having that option is to make your profile as complete, attractive and professional as possible.

    • @ExpertEnglish
      @ExpertEnglish  3 роки тому +2

      If you only mention "Looking for a new opportunity" in the headline, that's not making a strong point. Firstly it's too general and not specific enough. A new opportunity could be anything. Maybe it could be winning the lottery! "Seeking entry level Java Developer" or "Looking for internship in marketing & communications" is much more targeted and will trigger the right people who can maybe offer you that position. That's the difference.

      @ExpertEnglish  2 роки тому

      Wearing a hijab or not is really your choice. Just keep in mind if you are looking for a job in a non-muslim country, it will be much harder to get an interview. Studies show that employers are less likely to hire a candidate who wears a headscarf. In many European countries for instance workplace neutrality bans the display of any religious symbols. Hope this helps.
