LinkedIn: Set Location and Industry

Be sure to fill out both of these options in your header section. These are key parts of your profile that are searched by recruiters. Match the location and industry choices to your goals. If you live in New York but want to work in California, list a California location but make it clear in your summary section that you are relocating there in the near future. Also, in addition to these two spots, be sure to list your address in the area provided. At a minimum, you must list a city, state and zip code since the zip code is how most filters narrow the search on the recruiting side.
