[@alexrezel8860]

A good point on looking desperate in case of describing yourself as looking for a new opportunity.

[@roja4834]

You gave valuable information and its very clear. I saw many videos about linkdin on KZbin but you are the only one gave perfect explanation and how we use it. Thank u so much sir.

I completed my course as manual and automation testing and corejava.how do I put headline.am fresher.

[@spimachmixer]

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]

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!

[@szucsandras7809]

You said it as your last tip that we shouldn't put our position as looking for job, however in the same video when you are talking about how to use keywords in your description, you say that putting "Seeking Entry-Level Programming Position" (for example) is a good way to put this out because of the keywords. 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)?

[@Nexquan]

You can do this privately so that only recruiters can see you're looking.

[@aliimran7051]

When someone is writing about seeking a junior developer position isn't it as same as looking for a better opportunity?

[@ExpertEnglish]

No, actually it's not the same at all. Looking for a better opportunity is vague and will not trigger recruiters. Because almost everyone is 'looking for a better opportunity' ... So make it specific by describing your wanted position.

Seeking entry level is ok, but looking for new opportunity is not, why? Don't I get sth?

[@ExpertEnglish]

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.

[@foxywoxy0w068]

Hi, what is a good recommendation to add into your About section as a Job Seeker? Especially for one with no work experience?

[@ExpertEnglish]

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.

Is it advisable to use the "open to work" features on LinkedIn?

[@ExpertEnglish]

Yes, why not?

[@abrishfatima6130]

I don't have any job experience also i don't have degree. I want to find a job as (product photographer,product designer). I have my portfolio. Should i make profile on linkedin will it work for me?

[@ExpertEnglish]

Yes, you should do it!

[@user-xw9nv9iv1p]

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]

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.

[@user-xw9nv9iv1p]

@@ExpertEnglish Thank you

[@DeeDee-pp1zd]

What should I say in a DM to a connection about looking for work without sounding desperate?

[@ExpertEnglish]

I recommend to be very careful with DM's (specially if you don't know that person very well) because it can seem aggressive or indeed desperate. A good way is to approach a mutual connection of that person and ask if they can do a word for you.

[@TanvirAhmed-cg8kw]

People who are searching work, they add "open to work" option in their profile picture. Does it look like desperate to recruiters? I mean is it good or bad side.

[@ExpertEnglish]

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.

Please make a video for fresh medical graduates. I have a question... can a muslim female job seeker wear her hijab in picture for linkedin ?

[@ExpertEnglish]

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.
