Welcome to another enlightening lecture in our Job Searching Course Series. Today, I'll guide you through the process of adding licenses and certifications to your LinkedIn profile, ensuring credibility and trustworthiness in the professional sphere.
Before we proceed, let me emphasize the importance of authenticity. It's imperative to only share genuine certifications and refrain from using fake documents. Integrity is key to building a reputable online presence.
For instance, I've completed a UX design course offered by Google on Coursera Online Learning Platform, a globally recognized Website. By clicking on the provided link, you can view and verify my certificate, ensuring its authenticity. This transparency builds trust with potential employers and recruiters.
Additionally, I've obtained a graphic design certification from Digiskills Pakistan , an esteemed institution affiliated with the Government of Pakistan. I'll now upload this certification to my LinkedIn profile, further validating my skills and expertise.
To do so, navigate to your LinkedIn profile and select 'Add Profile Section', followed by 'Licenses and Certifications'. Enter the details of your certification, including the issuing authority, start and end dates, and any relevant credentials or URLs.
For example, I'll input the details of my Google UX design certification, specifying skills such as Figma, Adobe XD, web design, and UX design. By providing this information, you demonstrate proficiency in these areas, enhancing your profile's appeal to potential employers.
Next, upload any relevant media or verification links to corroborate your certifications. This transparency allows recruiters to verify your credentials easily, fostering trust and credibility.
Once saved, your certifications will be prominently displayed on your LinkedIn profile, signaling your dedication to professional development and competence in your field.
In conclusion, adding original certifications to your LinkedIn profile is essential for establishing credibility and trustworthiness within the professional community.
