Engagement is also a factor that helps you make your profile a more preferable one. I suggest students should start adding other peers and professionals from their domain and start engaging in their posts. LinkedIn has this algorithm that helps you get a push when your connections engage on your posts; it helps you reach an audience of professionals who are not connected to you. Sharing quotes, views, asking questions through polls to their connections can help the recruiter know that you have an inclination towards your field of expertise.

not all students have work experience. Students, who are in their final years and are freshers to get in the market, what for them?  How can they create such an awareness in the minds of a recruiter? The answer to this is volunteer experiences. During the 3-4 years time period of education, students get involved in a lot of cultural and educational activities. Activities such as College Fests, Educational Seminar, Cultural Communities, and much more. These events can help you show all the soft and complementary skills which you possess.
