Your LinkedIn profile has about six seconds to convince a recruiter you're worth a phone call. Most people spend those six seconds on a blurry photo and a headline that just says their job title.

The LinkedIn Profile Checklist is a work-top-to-bottom guide to getting your profile in shape. Check things off as you go, and by the end you'll have a profile that sounds like you and shows up in recruiter searches.

What's inside:

• 7 sections and 30+ checkboxes covering photo and banner, headline, About section, experience, skills, and settings

• Fill-in templates for your headline and About section, so you're never staring at a blank box

• A bullet formula for turning "managed projects" into something a recruiter remembers

• A visibility check so you know exactly what strangers can see

• A final gut check to make sure your profile and resume tell the same story

Who it's for: Anyone job searching, changing careers, or wanting recruiters to find them, and who'd rather fix it themselves than guess.
