I’m in-house and need to find a new role. In the past I’ve consistently had a decent number of recruiters reach out despite my LinkedIn page being pretty thin (which gives me more flexibility in the jobs I apply for). Recruiter messages have dropped so I’m planning to add linkedin page content about my roles including key words etc. How important is a detailed LinkedIn page and which sections are most important? Trying to understand how recruiters actually use LinkedIn to find candidates

I have my LinkedIn pretty up to date with my work experience but also have a detailed bio about what my background is and what I do specifically. I historically have gotten a lot of outreach from recruiters on LinkedIn.

Not a recruiter but I thought having a detailed LinkedIn means you would come up in more searches if you list more keywords, not sure if true

A1 you are correct. Recruiters have access to a different version of LinkedIn that allows for much more targeted search. If your profile is blank it is hard to find you

I always keep my LinkedIn up to date with job details in it, get a lot recruiters messages

Very. Remember the only way to get hired is by being the most competitive match. If the recruiter can’t figure out what you do, it is less likely they will message you.

Our HR says they usually get the linkedin recommended candidates list, I think those are based on AI- key words search

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level.

If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
