10 Common LinkedIn Mistakes that job seeker DO!

These are the top Linkedin Profile Mistakes You Must Avoid in 2022:

#10. Mistake that people make on Linkedin is making minor mistakes that only beginners make today, such as: using unprofessional photos, not changing your URL to a customizable one, not using job-related keywords in job descriptions, ignoring some or all LinkedIn Sections that were specially designed for you to fill in.

9. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is to have an out-of-date LinkedIn profile, especially if forgetting about changing your current employers, in case you are not employed. I recently came across a post in which an HR communication person was annoyed by a long-gone employee who still refers to the company as an employee. Unfortunately, this tactic won't help you when you talk to the recruiter and say: "Oh, by the way, I left XYZ company 6 months ago. and now I am in job search" It's a deviation, it's hated by recruiters and you won't get any further. Just share what you're currently working on because of the reasons I will mention in a minute.

8. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is your inability to maintain a clear focus when you are on the platform. Lack of concentration is a huge issue today for many people. We are constantly bombarded with promotions, recommendations, and LinkedIn influencer posts with thousands of likes and comments everywhere, and as a result, we are easily distracted from our goals.

If you're not into politics- switch it off (Linked in Politics). LinkedIn introduced a new feature to turn off politics in March 2022.

7. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin - Underestimating the power of Linkedin Groups because Groups are extremely powerful. People help each other if they share community ties. Youtubers socialize and promote each other's channels; the Instant Pot was promoted in Mom's Who Love to Cook Facebook groups, transforming a simple kitchen gadget into a billion-dollar business. So, use LinkedIn Groups to your advantage if you are in a job search.

And for that Go to one of the high-ranking profiles, or find a suitable connection from your network, and look at the groups he or she is in.

6. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is to follow up with your connections. Choose a person's profile that piques your interest, if you feel you guys click, then press the notification bell on their Linkedin profile and keep track of everything your connection does.

5. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is asking for too much from a stranger, for example, to be your internal company referral or ask for recommendations).
It doesn't work. If you don't know the person, there's no way they'll recommend you for a job in their company.

4. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is failing to personalize your connection request. Add a note to your connection request.

3. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is failing to add employment gaps - this is especially relevant since march 2022- because finally this feature was introduced by LinkedIn last month, and. honestly, it was something LinkedIn should have added a long time ago given the unprecedented number of unemployed and laid-off people in the last few years. Employment gaps are becoming more common these days, whether they are caused by the Covid pandemic or a time off to raise a family, care for a sick family member, or pursue additional education. This is completely normal and should not cause concern for anyone.

2. Next mistake that people make on Linkedin is failing to decide which roles to add to LinkedIn, which results in a mismatch between your profile and resume.

1. The biggest mistake that people make on Linkedin in my view is that when they see the easy apply button or apply with one click button, they do it without attaching the word resume. It's a trap that recruiters and online platforms promote to you, but don't fall for it! Send your resume together with your application (aka Linkedin Profile link) and beat the recruiter's ATS machine!
