LinkedIn Headlines
Your headline is the 220-character line under your name — and the single field LinkedIn's search weighs most heavily when a recruiter types a role into the search bar.
It follows you everywhere on the platform: search results, comment threads, connection requests, and the 'People also viewed' rail. Most surfaces truncate it well before 220 characters, and because LinkedIn truncates by pixel width rather than a fixed character count, the exact cutoff shifts with the device. That is why every framework here front-loads the words that matter.
The guides in this category cover the anatomy of a headline that ranks, how to choose keywords a recruiter would actually search, and what to write when your situation is awkward — between roles, changing industries, or still studying.
If you want a draft before you read the theory, the generator writes five variations from your role and target keywords in about ten seconds.
