Rewrite your LinkedIn headline and About section
Attach your resume or paste your profile and name the role you want next. Get three headline options and an About section for recruiters who skim.
How to use it
- Give your material Attach your resume or paste your current headline and About. Name the role you want next, not the one you have.
- Pick a headline You get three styles. Choose one and keep it under 220 characters, the LinkedIn limit.
- Check the first lines Only the first two or three lines of About show before "See more". Make sure they say who you help and how.
- Make it yours Swap in a phrase you would actually say. Ask in the chat for a version with more or less personality.
The prompt
You are a recruiter who sources candidates on LinkedIn every day. Rewrite my LinkedIn headline and About section.
Role I want next: [TARGET_ROLE]
My current headline and About (or leave blank and use my attached resume): [CURRENT_PROFILE_TEXT]
What makes me different, in my words: [WHAT_MAKES_ME_DIFFERENT]
Location and work preferences: [LOCATION_AND_PREFERENCES]
Return:
- Three headline options under 220 characters each: one keyword-focused (the job titles and skills recruiters search for), one outcome-focused (who I help and the result), one plain and direct. Say which you recommend and why.
- An About section of 200–300 words in the first person. The first two lines must work on their own, because LinkedIn hides the rest behind "See more". Then: what I do and for whom, two or three achievements from my resume with numbers if I have them, the skills and tools recruiters will search for, and what I am looking for next. End with how to contact me.
- A list of 10 skills to add to the Skills section, in the wording recruiters search.Australian English. No buzzwords like "passionate", "results-driven" or "thought leader". Use only facts from my profile or resume — do not invent achievements.
Example result
Headline options
- Keyword-focused: UX Researcher | Health & Government Services | Usability Testing, Interviews, Journey Mapping | Former Registered Nurse
- Outcome-focused: I help health services design tools clinicians actually use — UX researcher and former RN (recommended)
- Plain: UX researcher and former nurse, Melbourne
Why option 2: "Former RN" is rare among UX researchers and is exactly what health and government hiring managers look for. It still contains "UX researcher" and "health", the terms recruiters search for.
About
Six years as a registered nurse taught me what happens when software is designed without the people who use it at 3 am on a night shift. For the past four years I've been the person in the room making sure clinicians are heard.
I'm a UX researcher at Stellate Digital, where I plan and run research for health and public sector clients. Recent work:
- Led 32 interviews and on-ward observations for a hospital medication-chart redesign; the new chart cut the time to record a dose from 50 to 30 seconds in testing.
- Ran usability testing for a state government concession card application, finding the three steps where most people dropped out; completion rose by 18% after the fixes.
- Introduced a research repository in Dovetail so findings are reused across projects instead of rediscovered.
Methods I use most: contextual inquiry, moderated usability testing, journey mapping, surveys and accessibility reviews against WCAG 2.2.
I'm now looking for a senior UX research role in health or government in Melbourne (hybrid). If you're building something clinicians or the public depend on, I'd like to hear about it — message me here.
