LinkedIn Community Top Voice

Microsoft’s subsidiary, LinkedIn, is expanding its content hub by further segmenting subject topics to showcase more community “Top Voices” in 2024. Currently, there are two types of LinkedIn Top Voices, distinguished by the color of their badge (see link below). Here, we focus on the more prevalent Community Top Voices for their contributions. To begin, you’ll either receive an invitation or can review the topic list to find articles to comment on. Notifications will appear via the notification bell on your profile and will also be visible in your feed. It’s worth noting that many requests on your feed are typically generic, AI-generated questions related to topics, subjects, or activities. Their aim is to build content on the platform and refine support for AI-help or chatbots to assist you in overcoming writer’s block in the future. These suggestions, once translated, can potentially benefit thousands. The additional benefit of engaging in this activity is the sharing of insights, which helps maintain user engagement with content production. This activity aids in establishing your presence and being valued as an insightful contributor. Some may view it as akin to receiving a gold star for good work at school. Your Time Investment Is Important

Key words list for your LinkedIn profile or CV

Contents Introduction The key words list for your LinkedIn profile or CV is becoming more useful because of the way algorithms are used by recruiters or LinkedIn and Google. New business Internet research and job listings share some similar search attributes.  Job listings include the abilities and competencies an applicant needs to be a good  hire. These skills become keywords used by recruiters and hiring managers as they search to quickly identify top candidates.  Few people carefully read LinkedIn profiles and summary write-ups or CVs.  They take a cursory glance and only dig deeper if past job titles or skills trigger their interest. Common words searched for by LinkedIn or recruiter users Recruiters have moved on from the old days of simple filter boxes and job titles on LinkedIn.  Purchasing managers have done so as well as they both embrace Boolean search terms to expand their reach.  In order to help those who are in sales to be “attractive” to clients or those seeking a new ob and wanting contact from hiring managers, this list may help. Simply review your profile and summary write-up and check your use of adjectives and relevant terms.  accounting analytical analytics brand budget C (programming
