Why This Matters

The “Open to Work” post is not just an announcement; it’s a mini-marketing campaign.
You’re not just letting people know you’re available. You’re positioning yourself clearly, credibly, and compellingly.

People want to help. But to do that, they need context — not just that you're looking, but for what, and why you’re a strong fit.

I’ve seen clients go from crickets to recruiter outreach, just by tightening how they positioned their post.

Why? Because clarity lowers the friction for others to help you. And LinkedIn rewards clarity with reach.
