Advice

What recruiters notice first on LinkedIn

Whatever tool you use, these six parts of a profile do most of the work.

Six parts of a profilethat decide who gets the message
  1. A headline that says what you do

    Search results show only the first words. Put your role and your field there, and save the extras for after.

  2. An About section with a strong first line

    Only the first few lines show before people click. Open with the work you do and who it helps.

  3. A clear photo and a banner that works

    A recent photo with a plain background reads best. Use the banner to say what you do in a few words.

  4. The words recruiters search for

    Recruiters filter by skills and job titles. If your work backs a term up, it belongs on the profile.

  5. Experience that shows results

    Say what changed because you were there. A number or a named outcome beats a list of duties.

  6. A profile that matches your CV

    Recruiters compare the two. Keep titles, dates and claims the same in both places.

FAQ

Questions about the LinkedIn optimizer

Is the LinkedIn optimizer free?
No. It is part of Pro, $19.99 a month or $199.99 a year, which also removes the limits on CVs and AI cover letters. Searching and tracking jobs stays free. Our refund policy explains the rest.
How many checks do I get?
There is no monthly limit. To keep the tool fast for everyone, each account can run up to 10 checks in 24 hours and 4 in an hour. Checking the same profile again within a day shows the saved report.
What do you read from my profile?
Only the public version, the one anyone sees when signed out: headline, About, roles, education, skills, photo and follower counts. We never ask for your LinkedIn password and we do not sign in to your account.
Do you change my LinkedIn profile?
No. You copy the new text and paste it into LinkedIn yourself.
Will it make things up?
The suggestions reword facts that are already on your profile. If a number is not there, the tool does not add one. Read every line before you use it, because you are the one it has to be true for.
What do you keep?
We keep the suggestions and a short copy of the profile text we read, so you can compare your checks over time. Contact details are removed before anything is analyzed. You can delete a report at any time. Read more in our privacy policy.
Does it work on a private profile?
Only partly. We can read only what is public. If the profile is private or the link is wrong, the check stops and does not use up anything.
Is this tool made by LinkedIn?
No. Apply Remote is independent and not connected to LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a trademark of LinkedIn Corporation.
