How To Create A Great Linkedin Profile To Help You Get A Job In Mongolia

LinkedIn is a great tool to promote yourself to the world and more specifically to potential customers and future employers in Mongolia

. LinkedIn is your personal shop window and often it will be the first impression your future customers or employers have of you. Therefore it is really important that you create the best possible LinkedIn profile to help you find a Mongolian job.

Headline

This is where your first chance to create a positive impression. If you have a clear job title, use this. If you work for yourself or have flexibility in your job title, then choose something that is true, but shows you in a positive light bearing in mind what potential employers might search for. For example if you are a finance assistant but have a reasonable background as an accountant, it might be preferable to call yourself an accountant? For example our recruitment Consultants at Mongolia Talent Network, their headline is: Consultant at Mongolia Talent Network. Then choose your location this should be pretty obvious! For Mongolia Talent Network the location is Mongolia.

Industry

Location

Make sure you fill in the Location bar on your profile, often hiring managers will only talk to candidates who are in the right country. The difficulties of helping a candidate move to Mongolia can be too much for some companies.

Work Experience

Extensive use of pivot tables, VLOOKUPS, and formulas.

Do this for all of your jobs that you have listed on your LinkedIn profile.
