1. Set up your profile

The very first thing you need to think about updating is your profile. The profile shows your own personal branding. There are few tips for properly setting up your profile.

  • Better and suitable profile picture

LinkedIn is not like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. It has its own features different from other social media. The profile picture is the first thing that people see to identify you. As we know, visuals attract our eyes more. So, putting the right profile picture with the recent picture and face portion should have around 60% of close-up shots.

  • Explain your story in the summary section

The summary description of your story helps to attach more to your emotions. Your story actually gains attention rather than writing a random summary. You need to introduce your skill sets and your job with proper detail mentioning the application of the skillset in your professional life.

  • Mention you’re relevant skills

There are sections in LinkedIn to see the skill sets of any profile. After looking up your summary, people visit the skill section to know about the skills and the knowledge that you are having. Only try to provide the relevant skills within short. Long or irrelevant skills degrade your impression.

2.Engage with your connection through posts, comments, and messages
