His titles as a consultant had ranged from Project\/Program Manager and Development Lead to Lead Architect.<\/p>\n<p>He had never been a Director or VP, yet the writer he hired to create his <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/does-my-linkedin-profile-really-need-a-photo\/\">LinkedIn profile<\/a> and resume had used both phrases in his headlines.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, she convinced him that a headline should state the role he was seeking.<\/p>\n<p>She was right to want to populate his headline with such a strong relevant keyword phrase . . . one that executive recruiters and hiring managers may search on LinkedIn to find candidates like him.<\/p>\n<p>She was trying to best position him for future roles . . . but her strategy was all wrong.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know about you, but seeing \u201cDirector of Technology\u201d or \u201cVP of Information Technology\u201d in someone\u2019s LinkedIn headline would lead me to believe that person currently (or recently) held that title.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What\u2019s So Wrong About Stretching the Truth Just a Little in a Job Title?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s never a good idea to make a claim about yourself that isn\u2019t true. You\u2019ll almost always be found out eventually and kicked out of the running.<\/p>\n<p>By merely scrolling down to the Experience section of your <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/executive-resume-linkedin-profile-biography-whats-the-difference\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"5\">LinkedIn profile<\/a> (and\/or resume), people will notice that the made-up job title doesn\u2019t appear.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ll immediately wonder what else you\u2019ve lied about.<\/p>\n<p>Want to kill your chances with an employer, right off the bat? Lie in your job search\/career marketing materials.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s suppose your misrepresentation isn\u2019t found out immediately. Would you really want to get into the interviewing\/hiring process only to be found out further along, once your details are verified?<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve wasted your time, and everyone else\u2019s.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How Can You Position Yourself For New Roles, Without Misrepresenting Yourself?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>No doubt, you want to get your <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/how-search-engine-optimization-seo-impacts-executive-job-search\/\">most important relevant keywords and phrases<\/a> into your LinkedIn professional headline, and at the top of your executive resume.<\/p>\n<p>This same client could have legitimately claimed in his LinkedIn professional headline (and resume) that he\u2019s an \u201cInformation Technology Management Leader\u201d, or something similar.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not an actual job title, but describes what he does, and includes strong keywords.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Second Worst LinkedIn Profile Headline Mistake<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>An oversight I often see on <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/5-deadly-linkedin-mistakes\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"254\">LinkedIn profiles<\/a> \u2013 leaving the default headline the way LinkedIn fills that section, with your most recent job title.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving your most recent job title probably won\u2019t make best use of that location on your profile.<\/p>\n<p>The headline needs to include your most important relevant keywords and phrases . . . as many as you can fit into the 120 character limit.<\/p>\n<p>Since your LinkedIn professional headline sits high up on the web page, it&#8217;s a prime spot for <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/how-to-make-your-branded-linkedin-profile-professional-headline-seo-friendly\/\">Search Engine Optimization<\/a> (SEO).<\/p>\n<p>Any <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/3-big-mistakes-that-screw-up-your-linkedin-professional-headline\/\">relevant keywords you place in the headline<\/a> will be more readily found by the LinkedIn search engine than the content below it.
