Just a few quick tips for profiles that you maintain on different job sites/boards:
- Many job board search algorithms give extra weight to updated profiles, so when recruiters search for candidates, your profile will appear higher in the search results
- Recruiters also filter their search to include only recently updated resumes, since they don’t want to see profiles which haven’t been updated in a while (a signal that the candidate is no longer looking for a job).
- Therefore on job boards where you find the most relevant jobs, update your profile around once a week, to attract the most attention. This doesn’t have to be a major update, just something small (like deleting and then adding back a comma).
