If you’ve been applying to job after job and still not hearing a thing, this episode is your sign to pause and listen!
We’re walking through the LinkedIn habits that quietly kill your chances of getting recruited – and what to do instead. Think of this as your LinkedIn reset for 2025 so your next opportunity actually finds you.
We discuss:
- Why your headline is making you invisible (and how to fix it)
- The real reason recruiters scroll past your titles
- How to write an “About” section that actually gets attention
- Bonus: The underrated visibility setting that changes everything
If you want to finally have recruiters DMing you about jobs that fit, this is for you!
Cheering you on,
Kelsey Kemp & Audrey Bagarus
