Your short exercise
- List three phrases a recruiter or collaborator might search for your kind of work.
- Check which phrases are genuinely supported by a project or task you have done.
- Place the strongest phrase naturally in your headline, About section or project description.
Worked example
If you analysed survey responses, “customer research” can be supported by a short project description; an unearned “research lead” title cannot.
Check your output
- □ The phrase is likely to be searched.
- □ You can point to real supporting work.
- □ The profile still reads naturally.
