How To Maximize Your Linkedin Profile When Moving To Another Country

Amy L. Adler, MBA, certified master resume writer, Tori winner for Best Executive Resume, career strategist for executives, author of Courageous Career Change: Fearlessly Earn the Executive Role You Deserve, and CEO of Five Strengths Career Transitions Experts, shares tips for LinkedIn profile strategies for moving to Portugal or any other country.

She dives into effective strategies to enhance your LinkedIn profile for job searching, career changes, and building a professional network. Drawing from her experience working with executives on resumes, cover letters, and LinkedIn profiles, she emphasizes LinkedIn’s importance as a platform that allows anyone to reach a global audience. From crafting a compelling headline to choosing the right keywords, she explains how to optimize each part of your profile to attract the attention of recruiters and potential clients.

A key tip is to use your headline to convey your expertise and audience quickly. Job titles and the skills section also play a crucial role in making your profile searchable and credible. For career changers, she recommends rephrasing your experience to align with new career goals, helping potential employers see your skills in a way that resonates with their needs.

For those moving internationally, she discusses how LinkedIn’s dual-language profile feature can help you reach a broader audience and the importance of professional translation. She also highlights the benefits of creating a business page, especially for small companies, as it adds credibility to employee profiles and offers an additional space for sharing content.
