Additional sections

As with your r茅sum茅, you are able to add various sections to your LinkedIn profile.听 LinkedIn has created sections for you to choose from. You do not need to include all of the sections the site offers, rather add only those that are relevant to you and your career field.

Summary

The summary is your opportunity to expand further on your personal brand.听 Here you can describe your greatest accomplishments, ambitions, and interests.听 When writing your summary, it is important to remember the audience.听 You do not want to write large blocks of text; instead, use shorter blocks and bulleted lists where appropriate.听 As with all professional documents, ensure that your summary is grammatically correct and without typing errors.听 Based on your industry of interest and the experiences you鈥檝e had, you may choose to include an image, video, or other document in your summary section.

• An Introduction
  Officially, I am a senior in 艾可直播 College's Carroll School of Management studying marketing and information systems. But more importantly, I am a creative thinker who produces, values, and supports ideas that push boundaries. Marketing is my passion, and my specific interests lie in brand management, digital marketing, social media marketing, and product marketing.
  
  Why Marketing?
  The concept of branding has interested me from a young age. Though I may not remember which cartoons I watched听on Saturday听mornings as a child, I can still recall numerous commercials for various everyday products. Despite the fact that these products were seemingly ordinary, compelling brand stories expressed through unique advertising made them extraordinary. The lasting impact a brand can leave on a consumer and the loyalty that results from this impact fascinates me. Successful brands connect with their consumers, I believe that marketing is the key to a positive relationship between a brand and its audience.
  
  A Forward Thinker
  Norman Mailer once said, "One must grow or else pay more for remaining the same." This idea not only applies to individuals but also to brands. Today's consumer responds to innovation and creativity, and I hope to build a career around devising and implementing avant-garde marketing campaigns.
  

Experience, Volunteer Experience & Causes, and Organizations

These sections resemble the similarly-titled sections on your r茅sum茅. They will likely contain the majority of the information you share on your profile informing others of what you have done in the past. When updating these sections, include internships, work experience, extracurricular activities, and volunteer experiences. Describe each experience in enough detail to inform the reader about your responsibilities and accomplishments in each position. Be sure to include action verbs, industry-specific keywords, actions taken, and results achieved.

Education

Include your 艾可直播 College education and any other higher education experiences you may have. This could include study abroad experiences, previous degrees, exchange programs, or time spent at another institution.

Courses

Include any relevant courses you have taken and associate them with the proper Education entry utilizing the drop-down menu.

Skills

List your skills or areas of expertise. Include keywords and phrases from your industry. While you can add up to 50 skills to your profile,听 try to add at least 10 skills initially.

Your direct connections on LinkedIn are able to endorse you for skills on your profile. Skills that receive more endorsements will automatically be listed first in your skills list. However, if you would like to highlight certain skills, you can change the order by clicking 鈥渆dit鈥� in this section.
