LinkedIn CoachIs your LinkedIn profile working for you?
A free AI LinkedIn coach doing 16 targeted checks to ensure your profile stands out to recruiters and accelerates your job search.

Enhancv's LinkedIn Coach uses a two-part review system
When recruiters search for candidates on LinkedIn, your profile has only seconds to make an impression. LinkedIn's own algorithm also ranks profiles based on completeness, keyword match, and engagement signals — meaning an under-optimized profile simply won't appear in searches.
What Fai analyzes in your profile
Similar to how a recruiter reviews a LinkedIn profile, Fai reads your headline, summary, experience, skills, and visual elements. The deeper the analysis, the more personalized the recommendations.
What your personalized checklist includes
Recruiters notice what algorithms don't: typos, vague bullet points, weak headlines, and missing social proof. Fai's second layer surfaces these human-readable quality issues so your profile performs with both algorithms and real people.

Frequently asked questions
What is a LinkedIn coach?
A LinkedIn coach helps you identify and fix the gaps in your LinkedIn profile that are preventing you from appearing in recruiter searches or making a strong first impression. Enhancv's AI LinkedIn Coach, Fai, guides you through 16 targeted profile checks — covering everything from your headline and profile photo to your skills list and recommendations — and delivers a personalized checklist of improvements you can act on immediately.
How does the AI LinkedIn profile checker work?
Paste your LinkedIn profile URL (or upload a PDF export of your profile) and Fai analyzes your profile section by section. For each area, she identifies what's working, what's missing, and what could be stronger — then generates specific suggestions personalized to your target role and experience level. At the end of the session, you receive a full action plan by email.
How do I improve my LinkedIn profile for job searching?
Focus on the elements recruiters look for first:
- A headline that includes your job title, key skills, and unique value
- A professional photo (profiles with photos get 21x more views)
- A custom LinkedIn URL (linkedin.com/in/yourname)
- An About section that summarizes your experience and what you're looking for
- Experience bullets that quantify impact with numbers and metrics
- 15–30 relevant skills for your target role
- At least two to three recommendations from past managers or colleagues
What makes a strong LinkedIn headline?
Your headline is the first thing recruiters see in search results and connection requests — it's your single highest-impact optimization. A strong headline follows this formula: Job Title | Key Skills | Unique Value or Impact.
Avoid generic titles like "Experienced Marketing Professional" in favor of something specific: "Content Marketing Manager | SEO & Demand Gen | Helping B2B SaaS brands grow organic traffic." Fai generates four personalized headline options based on your experience and target role.
How important is a LinkedIn profile photo?
Very. Research consistently shows that profiles with professional headshots receive significantly more views and connection requests than those without. Your photo is the first visual signal of professionalism — it appears next to your name in every search result, message, and comment.
A good photo doesn't need to be studio-quality: clear lighting, a neutral background, and professional attire are the essentials. Fai reviews your current photo and flags if it's missing or likely to hurt first impressions.
What should my LinkedIn summary (About section) include?
Your About section is your pitch — it should tell recruiters who you are, what you bring, and what you're looking for, in around 50–80 words. Lead with your professional identity and strongest value proposition. Include 2–3 of your most significant accomplishments (with numbers where possible). Close with a clear statement of your target role or what kind of opportunities you're open to. Avoid copying your resume word-for-word — this section should feel personal and direct.
How many skills should I list on LinkedIn?
LinkedIn allows up to 50 skills, but the optimal range for most profiles is 15–30. Fewer than 10 signals an incomplete profile; more than 40 can dilute your relevance for specific roles. Prioritize skills that match your target job descriptions and industry keywords. Fai identifies the 10 most relevant skills for your target role based on your experience — you choose which ones to add.
How do I get LinkedIn recommendations?
Recommendations are one of the most underused trust signals on LinkedIn — and one of the most persuasive to recruiters. Aim for at least three recommendations from people who can speak directly to your professional work: a former manager, a peer colleague, and ideally a client or stakeholder.
Personalize every request: reference a specific project you worked on together and what you'd like them to highlight. Fai provides ready-to-send message templates for each type of recommender.
Does LinkedIn profile optimization really help with job searching?
Yes — in two distinct ways. First, a complete, keyword-rich profile ranks higher in LinkedIn's recruiter search results, which means you appear in front of hiring managers who are actively searching. Second, when a recruiter does find you (through a job application or mutual connection), a polished profile with strong content converts their interest into an outreach.
Think of it as SEO plus a sales page for your career.
Is the LinkedIn Coach free?
Yes, the core LinkedIn Coach experience — including all 16 profile checks and your personalized action plan — is free to use. Enhancv Pro users also get access to additional live profile scrapes and the most up-to-date profile data, since LinkedIn restricts how frequently profiles can be re-imported.
