LinkedIn is Your New Resume (Here’s How to Stand Out)

Written By High Tide Ventures

Recruiters live on LinkedIn. If your profile doesn’t shine, you’re invisible.

3 Quick Fixes to Try Today

  1. Headline Upgrade: Go beyond “Looking for Opportunities.” Try: “Data Analyst | SQL | Turning Numbers Into Insights.”

  2. Profile Photo Refresh: Use a clear, professional headshot. Natural lighting + simple background works wonders.

  3. Show, Don’t Tell: Use the “Featured” section to upload work samples, resumes, or portfolio links.

Why You Have the Edge

You already live online. Use it: highlight side projects, digital communities you’ve built, or freelance gigs. These experiences are proof of adaptability — employers love that ish.

CTA: Not sure how to polish your profile? High Tide offers LinkedIn makeovers to help you attract recruiters instead of chasing them. Chart Your Course Today.
