5 Quick Tips to Boost Your Job Hunt on LinkedIn – From Our Recruiters

At Townsquare Interactive, our recruiters are always looking for top talent—and they know exactly what makes a LinkedIn profile stand out. Here are five quick tips straight from the team to help you make a great impression and improve your chances of landing your next role: 

1. Add a Profile Photo 

It might seem small, but having a clear, professional photo makes your profile more personable and complete. 

2. Update Your “Open to Work” Settings 

The #OpenToWork feature tells recruiters what types of roles you’re looking for and helps your profile appear in relevant search results. 

3. Include Dates on Your Resume 

Listing the months you worked at each job helps recruiters understand your experience and career timeline more clearly. 

4. Keep Your Experience Current 

Make sure your most recent role and responsibilities are listed on your LinkedIn profile under Work Experience. A current profile = a relevant candidate. 

5. Follow Up on LinkedIn 

After you apply, don’t be afraid to send a quick message to the recruiter on LinkedIn. It shows initiative and keeps your name top of mind.
