Write a headline that states your target role
Lead with the job you want next, not every title you have ever held. Example: "Product designer — B2B SaaS, 4 years" beats "Creative professional seeking opportunities."
Recruiters scan hundreds of rows. Specific headlines reduce back-and-forth email asking what you actually do.
List skills employers filter on
Add tools, languages, and domains you use in production. Order the most relevant skills toward the top. Remove outdated entries you would not want to be tested on in an interview.
If you are switching fields, include transferable skills (project management, stakeholder communication) alongside the technical ones you are building.
Show outcomes in work history
Each role should include one line on scope (team size, product area) and one line on outcome (metric moved, launch shipped, cost saved). Numbers help, but a concrete deliverable works when metrics are confidential.
Keep employment dates accurate. Gaps are fine; unexplained overlaps are what slow verification down.
Common questions
Should my profile be public?
Public profiles appear in employer search. Use privacy settings if you are employed and only want to be visible after you apply.
How long should my résumé be?
One to two pages for most candidates. Upload the PDF to your profile so apply flows stay one click.
