Experience and education
Adding roles and schools, the six employment types, and why attaching skills to a role does more than attaching them to your profile.
Experience and education are entry lists - each role or school is its own record with its own dates, description and skills.
Adding a role#
Each entry takes a title, a company, dates, and one of six employment types:
Full time · Part time · Contract · Freelance · Internship · Apprenticeship
Company, school and location fields autocomplete. Picking the suggestion rather than typing a variant is worth doing: matched entities render with their logo and group correctly.
Writing the description#
The same rules as a resume bullet, for the same reason - see writing good bullets.
The difference is that a profile is read more slowly than a resume and by people who are choosing whether to talk to you, so one specific paragraph beats five generic bullets.
Skills on a role#
You can attach skills to each individual role, not only to your profile as a whole.
Education#
Same shape: school, qualification, dates. Autocompleted, and worth picking the matched school so it renders consistently.
Order it the way your case reads best. A recent graduate leads with education; ten years in, it belongs below experience - see ordering your profile.
