Why It Matters

 

“If your online presence doesn’t match your value, you won’t get found — or worse, you’ll get filtered out.”

Recruiters are searching — but what are they finding? Whether you’re actively job-seeking or just open to conversations, how you show up in search matters. At the executive level, visibility isn’t about being loud. It’s about being clear, relevant, and aligned with what decision-makers are already looking for.

Where Recruiters Actually Look

  • LinkedIn (top 3 result 90% of the time)

  • Google (your name + title + industry)

  • Thought leadership on Medium, Substack, or company blogs

  •  Executive bios on past company websites

  • Twitter/X and other social mentions

If these places aren’t clean, compelling, and connected — you’re invisible.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using outdated or generic LinkedIn headlines

  • Ignoring Google results for your name

  • Over-indexing on résumé bullets, under-indexing on narrative

How to Optimize Your Personal SEO

  • Use a clear headline that reflects what you actually want next (not just your last title)

  • Write a LinkedIn summary that speaks like a value proposition — not a biography

  • Publish or repost 1–2 pieces that reflect how you think

  • Link your name to relevant keywords: “SaaS CMO,” “healthtech GTM leader,” “B2B growth advisor”

  • Audit Google results for your name + company + title and adjust accordingly

This Is About Inbound, Not Influence

You don’t need to be a content machine. You need to:

  • Show up clearly when someone Googles you

  • Align your story across platforms

  • Leave a strong impression without needing to “sell”

Think visibility without noise — clarity over quantity.

What Great Looks Like

  • A digital footprint that aligns with your next chapter
  • A story that’s consistent across every platform
  • An online presence that pulls the right attention without begging for it

TL;DR: Proactive Interviewing = Strategic Readiness

  • LinkedIn is your homepage — own it

  • Google yourself — fix what’s confusing or irrelevant

  • Align your message across every platform

  • Help recruiters understand why you, not just what you’ve done
