How to Write an Irresistible Profile Description on HireTalent.ph

As a Filipino talent looking to make your mark here at HireTalent.ph, crafting an attention-grabbing profile description is crucial. 

Sadly, some of our registrants seem to ignore this or simply don’t know how to optimize it. And it can result in being overshadowed by other job applicants.

So, without further ado, let me share some insights on creating a stellar profile description with employers lining up to hire you.

#1 Introduce yourself

Start strong by introducing yourself in a way that’s both professional and personable. You may begin with your first name and a brief statement about your passion for helping.

For example, “Hi, I’m Alex, a dedicated virtual assistant with a knack for turning chaos into order.” This gives potential clients an immediate sense of who you are and how you can help them. It’s also real—employers like real.

#2 Highlight your unique skills

Next, showcase what sets you apart. Do you have expertise in specific software or unique problem-solving abilities? Mention your proficiency in tools like Asana, Trello, and Zoom. Don’t be shy about your talents – this is your time to shine!

This will rank on Google and show up on our specific pages (helping employers find you as a perfect fit)

#3 Briefly discuss your previous jobs

Your work history adds credibility to your profile. Include a concise overview of your past roles, focusing on achievements rather than just duties. For instance, “In my previous position, I saved my client 2 hours a day through streamlined scheduling and inbox management. This increased revenue by $2,000 each month.” You don’t have to mention names, but say what you did!

#4 Use bullets when listing your services

When it comes to listing your services, clarity is key. Use bullet points to make your offerings easily scannable. For example:

• Email management and correspondence
• Calendar organization and scheduling
• Travel arrangements
• Social media management
• Basic bookkeeping and invoicing

#5 Focus on customer satisfaction

Clients want to know how you’ll make their lives easier. Always include a paragraph about your commitment to excellence and how you go above and beyond to ensure client satisfaction. Share your approach to communication, problem-solving, and meeting deadlines. Don’t just say things others have said; say exactly how and what you’ll do.

#6 Write in a conversational tone

Keep your profile engaging by writing as if you’re having a conversation. Use contractions and a friendly tone to make your profile description approachable.

Remember, you want potential clients to feel like they’re getting to know you.

#7 Don’t copy from others or use AI

Authenticity is crucial. Write from scratch, and ensure that it reflects your unique voice. Avoid the temptation to copy other profiles or use AI-generated content – clients can often spot this, and it doesn’t showcase your true self. They’re only spending a few seconds on your profile, and it’s almost an immediate pass.

#8 Include an enticing call to action

End your profile with a solid call to action. Try something like, “Need to spend more time on sales than operations? Please send me a message! I’m available to start immediately.” This invites potential employers to take the next step and reach out to you.

Remember, your profile description is your virtual handshake. Make it count by showcasing your personality, skills, and dedication to client success.
