LinkedIn Profiles Editing and Proofreading Services

A recruiter searches, gets ninety results, and sees a name, a photograph and one line each. That line is the entire basis on which they decide whom to click. Underneath, the About section shows two lines before "see more", and almost nobody expands it. So a profile is really about forty words long, and most people spend their effort on the two thousand nobody reaches.

We edit LinkedIn profiles and the writing on them — headlines, About sections, role descriptions and achievements, skills and endorsement framing, open-to-work and recruiter-facing settings text, featured items and their captions, and the short posts and connection notes that accompany a job search. Our editors work on the two lines that decide whether the rest is read.

The headline and the first two lines of the About section carry the whole profile, and their failure is a job title where a reason to click belongs. Nobody has ever clicked a profile because it said "Experienced Professional". We work through these so the headline states what the person does and for whom rather than their current title, since a title is already visible under it and repeating it wastes the only line a search result shows; so the words a recruiter would actually type appear in the headline, given that search is how most profiles are found and a headline of abstractions is invisible to it; so the About section's first two lines work as a standalone unit, because that is what displays, and a sentence that breaks mid-clause at the fold reads as a fragment; so the opening avoids a first-person mission statement, as recruiters skip these and hiring managers dislike them; so one number appears early, since scale is what distinguishes two people with the same title; so the About section is written in whichever person the writer can sustain, and not switched halfway, which is the commonest error on the platform; so the role descriptions say what the person did rather than what the department was responsible for; and so anything that would be different for a recruiter than for a client is resolved in favour of whoever the profile is currently for. Profiles written this way get opened.

Everything you send is treated in confidence, including job searches that are not public, employment history and material about current employers. We are editors rather than recruiters or career advisers, and we offer no view on the platform, your prospects or any employer. What we can do is make the first two lines earn the click.
