Where it starts.

Each project arrives with its purpose, milestones and first tasks written out. Here is how the first three read.

LinkedIn profile audit against your target role

Most profiles were written in a hurry during the last job search and describe a job you no longer do. Reading yours as a stranger would, beside the profiles of three people who already hold the role you want, shows in an hour what is missing, out of date or pitched at the wrong reader.

First tasks

  • Find three people who hold the role you want next and save their profiles
  • View your own profile as the public sees it and note what shows
  • Write one line on each section saying what is missing or stale
  • Rank the fixes and put the top five in this area's order

Target audience and keyword list for your profile

Recruiters find people by typing job titles, skills and tools into search, and a profile that never uses those words stays invisible however good it is. Deciding who you want to reach, then pulling the exact phrases they use from twenty job adverts, gives every later section a vocabulary to work from.

First tasks

  • Write one sentence naming the role, industry and seniority you want to reach
  • Save twenty current job adverts for that role from two or three job boards
  • Ask the agent to count the titles, skills and tools that recur across the adverts
  • Mark each keyword as one you can claim today or one you are building

Profile photo and banner image refresh

People decide whether to read a profile in the second it takes to see the photo, and a cropped holiday shot or a ten-year-old picture sets the wrong first impression. A clear, recent head-and-shoulders photo with plain lighting, plus a banner that says something about your work, costs very little and is seen on every comment you ever leave.

First tasks

  • Ask a friend to take ten head-and-shoulders photos of you by a window
  • Pick the clearest one and check it at small thumbnail size
  • Make a simple banner showing your field or a line about your work
  • Upload both and set the photo visible to all members

Make it yours.

Install LinkedIn Profile & Presence, then tell Aurum the date you're aiming for. It checks whether the plan fits the weeks you actually have.
