I like the suggestion you made about using a bright colored background. That might be fun and eye-catching. Thanks for the vid.

These are all great tips! I have been able to utilize several of the tips you have shared in your videos. Quick question - how do you get your circle profile picture in the center of the page rather than on the left of the page? Thank you!

My favorite was the picture of the guy with a kitty. That was hilarious.

One of my favorite don'ts is to "don't look away from the camera". This is so important especially on LinkedIn.

Something I did not see mention but also important is nowadays it’s easy to touch up and even drastically modify the photo, adding artificial key light, fill lights as well as touch ups. For the cover of Vogue this maybe ok but for a business photo you are trying to portray honestly and transparency, a business photo, linked or Resume, should not look too artificial or have obvious post modifications.

Thank you for the video, in your opinion do you feel that employers really consider your LinkedIn profile? Also, I live in a low employment area. I'm concerned that I'm pouring a lot of energy into LinkedIn and it may be useless. Are there any statistical evidence that LinkedIn is being used even in smaller places? I don't know a lot of people as I've moved into town from a smaller.I really wasn't in touch with most of the people I went to school with in this town, I regret that a lot now. Any advice on how to find some good references to put on your LinkedIn

You gotta try karma for an AI headshot, its so much better than a selfie and really professional looking.
