Your LinkedIn headline is prime real estate. Itâs the first thing recruiters seeâand the #1 way to get found in searches.
Hereâs how to make yours irresistible:
1ď¸âŁ Use Keywords:
Scan job descriptions for your target role. Pull out the most-used titles and skills (e.g., âHR Specialist,â âTalent Acquisition,â âEmployee Engagementâ).
2ď¸âŁ Add a Value Statement:
Whatâs your edge? Combine your title with a result or specialty.
Example: âHR Specialist | Building High-Performing Teams | Talent Acquisition Expertâ
3ď¸âŁ Keep It Clear:
Skip buzzwords like âninjaâ or ârockstar.â Stick to what recruiters actually search.
4ď¸âŁ Stay Under 220 Characters:
Short, sharp, and packed with keywords is best.
