Why LinkedIn Optimization Is Important
Last week, we had a recruiter share their gems with my group coaching program about LinkedIn Optimization! This Recruiter spilled the tea and I can’t wait to share her secrets with you. I’m so excited to talk about Why LinkedIn Optimization is Important. Let’s dive in!
Recruiters Use LinkedIn to Find Candidates
First off, 87% of recruiters turn to LinkedIn to find candidates for their roles! In fact, 122 million people received an interview through a recruiter on LinkedIn. In addition, recruiters are reviewing over hundreds of applicants for a single role. Consequently, recruiters are relying heavily on keyword search tools.
Optimizing LinkedIn for Keywords
In response, recruiters turn to keyword optimization methods to ensure they find the right candidates. As a result, if your LinkedIn profile isn’t optimized for the right keywords, you may be missing out on opportunities. In other words, your LinkedIn profile is less likely to be discovered by recruiters who are actively searching for candidates!
Leveraging LinkedIn for Negotiating Equitable Pay
Even if you aren’t actively looking for a role, having an updated LinkedIn with keyword optimization will attract recruiters. Many times, recruiters will reach out regarding opportunities and provide salary range insight for similar roles to yours. If you are getting underpaid, this is a great way to leverage competitor compensation to increase your salary in your current role. In other words, you can use competitor compensation information as leverage to negotiate a more equitable salary at work.

I was scared to negotiate my salary as an undergrad. With Evie’s coaching, I negotiated with different companies and got my counteroffer approved!!

It felt amazing to have someone in my corner to guided me with my salary negotiations.

As a new graduate, I was planning to take the first offer I received. Evie quickly helped me learn how I could negotiate my offer. I negotiated my first offer to the maximum salary they had in their budget, then I turned down the offer because I still felt I was being undervalued. Two weeks later, I received 3 offers, and I negotiated a position with a 23% higher base salary than the cap of the first offer I turned down

Evie helped me feel empowered and knowledgeable in salary negotiations. Her coaching helped me negotiate a higher salary! I never thought I would be this close to a 6-figure salary without being an engineer or nurse. Evie’s services and mentorship were invaluable. I look forward to negotiating moving forward in my career.
