Evaluate Effectiveness!
The LinkedIn Scorecard; a Self-Assessment Tool To Evaluate Your Profile
An effective LinkedIn profile is an asset in a passive job search, allowing you to be found online by recruiters and hiring managers looking for candidates like you. It is also essential in an active job search, allowing you to connect with companies that are hiring, apply for positions online, and use your network more effectively.
Give yourself the appropriate number of points for each line. Then total your score.
Profiles that are considered “complete” by LinkedIn’s standards receive 40 times more “opportunities” (contacts from prospective hiring managers and recruiters) than incomplete profiles. LinkedIn has its own criteria for “profile completeness” — these are things you need to have on your LinkedIn account in order to have a “complete” profile, according to LinkedIn.
Stop wasting time and losing connections, evaluate the effectiveness of your LinkedIn profile according to best practices!
