Optimize my LinkedIn profile
Headline, About section, and experience entries that make recruiters and clients reach out.
The prompt
Optimize my LinkedIn profile.
Target audience: [recruiters for X roles / potential clients / industry peers]
Goal: [job offers / clients / speaking / network]
Current profile: [paste headline, About section, and experience entries — or attach my resume]
What makes me different: [strengths, results, story]
Voice: [e.g. warm and direct, analytical, playful]
Deliver:
1. Headline — 5 options (within 220 characters) combining role, value, and keywords people search for.
2. About section — 2 versions within LinkedIn's 2,600-character limit (aim for 1,500–2,000): a hook in the first two lines (visible before "see more"), my story and value, 2–3 proof points with numbers, what I'm looking for, and a call to action. First person, human, no clichés ("passionate", "results-driven", "synergy").
3. Experience — rewrite my top 2 roles as achievement bullets.
4. Skills and keywords to add for my target audience.
5. Quick wins — featured section, banner, profile photo, open-to settings.
Use only facts I provide; mark missing numbers as [ADD METRIC].
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
