LinkedIn Optimization

My LinkedIn Testimony | How a LinkedIn Message Landed Me a Job to Google

I've spoken at 120+ career events, and whenever I talk about LinkedIn, I start with my own story. I didn't apply for my role at Google A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn.

When I later asked my recruiter why, the answer was simple: my keywords, experience, and background on my LinkedIn profile were clearly documented and easy to understand. That clarity gave me an edge over qualified candidates who hadn't translated their impact on LinkedIn.

The Takeaway

It's not always the most qualified candidate who gets the role. It's the most prepared. LinkedIn optimization played a major role in that outcome, and has became my testimony to the importance of having a standout, high-impact LinkedIn.

Why Career Coaching Is My Passion

In March 2025, I worked with a mother who had been laid off and wanted one thing: to get back on her feet. By May, she landed a new role through our work together. Months later, I unknowingly worked with her husband. Afterward, he said:

“Alex, you helped my wife earlier this year, and now you’ve helped me. The impact you’ve had on our household has been overwhelming. Thank you.”

That moment captures why I do this work, and over the years, I’ve been fortunate to have more than 1,400 moments just like it.

Here is an overview of the process:

1. [Context]: Email [alexresume27@gmail.com] with your resume, LinkedIn URL, target roles, and additional context.

2. [Build]: After, I’ll build a customized LinkedIn draft aligned with your career goals and target roles.

3. [Draft]: Within 2–3 days, I’ll send you editable drafts (Google Docs or Microsoft Word) with detailed comments.

4. [Revisions]: Based on your feedback, I’ll revise the drafts and send you updated copies that highlight my edits.

5. [Repeat]: Over the next 2 weeks, we’ll continue refining your drafts together until you’re fully satisfied!
