Because this type of summary focuses more on soft skills than on hard skills, it’s ideal for two types of users: the networkers and the less-experienced. If you’re using LinkedIn primarily to meet new people, rather than get a job, this makes you seem like an interesting person to know. You’ll likely see an increase in the number of connections you make, as well as the number of people who accept your coffee invites.And it’s also great if you’re still a student or relatively new to the professional world. Instead of being confined to a short, two or three sentence bio explaining what limited experience you have, you can flesh out your character traits to help people learn more about you.
