A LinkedIn headline recruiters can find.

Enter your job, your skills and what you want next. You get five headline options, each under LinkedIn's limit, using the words recruiters actually search for.

How it works

  1. Enter your job title and your industry.
  2. List your main skills and certifications.
  3. Say what you want: a new job, a change of career, or to be found by recruiters.
  4. Choose a headline and paste it into your profile.

Questions people ask

How long can a LinkedIn headline be?

Up to 220 characters. The first 60 or so show in search results, so put the important words first.

What should it include?

Your job title or the job you want, one or two key skills, and, if you can, a result or specialty.

Should I write 'open to work' in it?

Use LinkedIn's Open to Work setting instead. Put the job you want in the headline.
