What’s your brand?! Oftentimes, your Linkedin profile is the first impression you’ll make on a hiring manager or recruiter. Put your best foot forward with the tips that Lisa and Chelle shared with us. To get started, personalize your URL, upload a current professional headshot, and add a profile header image that reflects who you are.
Watch the event recording for the best ways to make your profile shine.
If you are looking for a hand putting it all together, both Chelle and Lisa are offering a 20% discount on services for Colorado Career Connectors members through the end of the year -- not just creating a Linkedin profile that reflects the true you, but anything else you need help with on your career journey. Reach out via email or on Linkedin and let them know you’re interested.

You can now register for events directly on our website. Because transitions can be rough, we are going to continue to allow registration through Meetup for the time being -- in the future, we hope to move all event registration to our website, as this will be easier for us to manage and will help us to bring you the best version of our content.
