By default, LinkedIn's formatting leaves a little bit to be desired. Did you know that you can add symbols to spice it up?
Brynne Tillman is a LinkedIn trainer who has worked on thousands of profile makeovers. She provides symbols in her LinkedIn Pulse article that you can simply copy and paste into your profile. The types of symbols you can include are:
- Smileys
- Love
- Phone
- Scissors
- Music
- Write
- Religious
- Political
- Question
- Chess
- Cards
- Stars
- Money
- Hand
- Copyrights
- Yes
- No
- Weather
- Flower
- Triangles
- Ratios
- Compare
- Roman
- Circled
- Functional
- Quotes
- Round
- Boxes
- Pointers
- Planets
As you can see there a lot of things to choose from. Please visit her post to check them out and let us know if you end up using any of them in your profile!
This is a good reference. It would be nice if she had included a category for quick bullet points. A site that I have used to copy and paste is http://www.linkedin-makeover.com/2010/12/20/how-to-create-linkedin-bullets/
