Headshot (photo)
Your profile picture is your calling card on LinkedIn – it’s how people are introduced to you and (visual beings that we are) it governs their impressions from the start. Here are some quick tips to start with: make sure the picture is recent and looks like you, make sure your face takes up around 60% of it (long-distance shots don’t stand out), wear what you would like to wear to work, and smile with your eyes!
Headline
There’s no rule that says the description at the top of your profile page has to be your official job title. Use the headline field to say a bit more about how you see your role, why you do what you do, and what you’re passionate about.

Example 2: LinkedIn lead specialist with a passion for connecting people.
Example 3: Austin, TX native, business advisor and parent to two beautiful girls!
