What is a Personal Summary?
Updated
The personal summary on your profile is your chance to highlight your skills and experience. Take this opportunity to share what you would want companies to know about you. You can build your summary by including the following information:
- Highlight the skills and experiences that set you apart
- Explain what you are looking for in your next job
- Let companies know about special circumstances that would help them understand the rest of your application. For example, if you have limited work experience because you're just completing school and entering the workforce for the first time, be sure to explain that.
