For instance, you can add your name and primary keywords or phrases so people can use it to find your profile.If you are offering payroll services in a specific area, the tag on your photo can be ‘the best payroll service in Manhattan’.

2.Add Keywords And Phrases In Your Headline, Job Description And Summary

Interview coaches from Arielle Executives point out that this section was mostly created from head hunters and recruiters. They use it to find candidates who have specific skills.

You can also increase your endorsements by asking the coworkers and the network to endorse you.
