Writing a Powerful LinkedIn Summary


A LinkedIn membership, free or premium, is a must have for today's job seeker because head hunters are flocking to LinkedIn to recruit candidates for open positions. A significant part of the LinkedIn profile is the summary section. To get the most out of your summary don't reiterate information that is on your resume, but look for a different angle to flesh out the same background in two paragraphs. This part will take time if you aren't a wordsmith so don't be surprised or get discouraged if it takes you a couple of days to come up with compelling verbiage.
 
Once you have written the introductory paragraphs, choose three successes from the last ten to fifteen years of your career to showcase. Finally to round out the summary, include a closing paragraph. Let's take a look at a sample summary Linkedin you can use as a model.

What does FMCG mean?

The term FMCG basically means retail goods that get 'used up' quickly, within a number of days or weeks. The term FMCG is short for 'fast moving consumer goods.' FMCG's differ to goods such as kitchen appliances and other durable major appliances that are not usually replaced within one year. 

FMCG usually have an extremely short shelf life, this can be due to consumer requirements or generally that the product itself degenerates quickly and therefore needs replacing fast. 

Fast moving consumer goods have an extremely short shelf life and certain types, such as fruit and veg, fresh meat, dairy products and others are highly perishable. Goods such as toiletries, alcohol and cleaning products also have extremely high turnaround rates. 

When asked to describe what FMCG are customers usually describe them as being objects that need replacing frequently, are inexpensive and not big purchases that require lots of thought. 

Marketers would view FMCG products as being high in volume, low in contribution margins, and having a high stock turnover. 

If you are looking for a career in FMCG then you should aim to register with a recruitment specialist. By registering with a recruiter you will gain access to jobs which you would not normally come across. This is because often FMCG jobs are worked on by recruitment agents on an exclusive basis. 

Applying for a job through a recruiter gives you a much better chance of getting your CV noticed. Often there are hundreds of CV's sent for each job advertised these days so it can be difficult to ensure that your CV is going to be seen without working with a trusted recruiter. 

If you are looking for a job in this industry then why not contact Axis Search today in order to apply for exclusive jobs.
