Are you thinking about leveling up your LinkedIn game? 

Vickie Hicks, Community Relations Director for the Springfield Greene County Library, has an expert tip for your profile to help it shine.

She says to be sure to include a current photo. Your profile is 14 times more likely to be viewed with a picture.

  • If you don’t have a professional photo, take one outside where you are looking at the camera and smiling.
  • Don’t use a selfie; instead, have someone take your picture.
  • Don’t use a cropped photo from Facebook from a bar, a wedding, or the like.
  • Wear what you wear to work.
