LinkedIn Tips 101 - A quick tip!

Here is a very simple LinkedIn101TIP.

TIP #3 . . .

Spelling and Grammar.

This is a professional site. Many people use it to look for jobs, look for job candidates, network, prospect for clients. . .and so on. Make sure your profile is free from spelling and grammar errors! It is quite off-putting (at least for myself) to see things like the following most common spelling errors:


manger, opertations, supravisor, busines, suport, presadent, profeshional, etc.


If you hold a job you are probably expected to have decent vocabulary, grammar skills, etc. And, your LinkedIn profile is basically YOUR resume. So use that spell check, grammar check, AND proofread what you've written! Please spell your job title correctly! You are representing yourself and the company you work for. Please spell their name correctly too. Just when you think you've seen the wurst speling n grammer erors on LinkedIn - you'll find won more that takes the cake!

Hukd un funix werkd fer me! 😜

I think my spell check is messed up.. Seriously, I spell things wrong all the time and then it autocorrects to something so hideous... And I think to my self it was only missing one letter. What went wrong?

The worst I saw was on a proofreader's description. It said 'profreader'. I messaged the member and she changed it but didn't reply to me!
