This is part 8 of 15, expanding on my earlier plog.
Yesterday I equated your Experience section on LinkedIn to layers peeled away to expose your core, like an onion.
Further, the Experience section should NOT be a rehash of bullet points in your resume.
Directed to a different reading audience than your backward-focused resume, this section should also highlight today’s efforts drawn from the past, with your aspirations for the future: 3 tenses.
Add pertinent multimedia and complementary material. Make it interesting and lively to read and get a feel for your personality and the package of skills, traits and values you bring with you. Direct the reader/viewer/listener what they will see/watch/hear when they click the media on your Experience.
It’s a completely different way to be memorable and tell about you in a more engaging way.
