GET MORE OPPORTUNITIES...
Optimising your LinkedIn & CV is the surest way of increasing the number and quality of your opportunities. Executives with generic or poor profiles are far less likely to get interviews or even be considered in the first place. Those with profiles not optimised for discovery are often overlooked altogether for the majority of leadership roles which aren't advertised. Most executives massively underestimate how important LinkedIn is for getting on the radar of hiring managers, headhunters, and talent acquisition.
You can have the best background, be the best interviewer, but ultimately if you are not being found for the right opportunities by the right people at the right time, you are missing out. The tech sector is so competitive that it is still a numbers game, even at VP & C-level.
We mentor executives on how to optimise their profile to be found and considered for more leadership opportunities, as well as how to tell their story through their CV / LinkedIn in a way which resonates with their target audience and converts interest to interviews.
?
Is your CV / LinkedIn working for or against you?
You need to understand how hiring managers, talent acquisition, and headhunters search for and filter candidates for your kind of position. Build your profile based on what they're looking for, not what you want to say. Optimise for discovery on these search criteria.
?
Is your CV / LinkedIn too long or short?
Too much information and you dilute your selling points, lose your audience's attention, and make it harder for them to qualify you. Too little and you risk not communicating the information stakeholders need to progress to an interview.
?
What data points should you have on your CV / LinkedIn?
You should provide explicit data points that allow prospective hiring managers to immediately qualify you in as a strong candidate when they look at your profile. They need to be clear and immediately visible. These will be specific to your function, role, company stage, and vertical.
?
Why is LinkedIn so important?
95%+ candidates for executive-level roles are sourced via LinkedIn - either directly or through recruiters. It is the very start of the search funnel and it is essential that you are discovered and filtered correctly for relevant opportunities.
?
Most senior roles aren't advertised - how do you get on the radar?
Your profile needs to be discoverable to relevant stakeholders at the right times. They will reach out to you - but only if they can find you and you are showing them the relevant information they need. Optimise your profile to leverage inbound interest.
?
How to increase your visibility so more opportunities find you?
Hack how hiring managers, talent acquisition, and headhunters find candidates for executive roles. Follow simple steps to leverage LinkedIn's algorithm and improve visibility. Improve your network with relevant headhunters.
?
How do you know if your CV / LinkedIn is effective?
Benchmark the volume and relevancy of your opportunities. Ascertain whether your CV /LinkedIn is optimised or if you are missing out on opportunities.
