Linkedin tells• Is the photo professional or personal? Is it appropriate?

• Is the headline a job title (needs to be told what to do), internal jargon (career-focused), or descriptive (client focused)?

• What does the education background tell you? (Lots of certificates might suggest a functional mindset, e.g.)

• Work history: do summaries seem like they were lifted from job descriptions, or have they been re-written to tell a cohesive story?

• If connections are open, is there a pattern to them?
