The LinkedIn Diagnostic

Three questions about your profile: can a recruiter find you, will they contact you once they do, and does it corroborate your CV? Add your profile and/or CV below, fill in any hidden settings you know, and run the diagnostic.

API key

This tool uses the Anthropic API directly in your browser — typically 5–15p per report. Your key is used only for this request and never stored. Get one at console.anthropic.com — add a small credit balance under Billing (£5 runs around 60–80 reports).

LinkedIn profile

or paste below

To export your profile as a PDF: LinkedIn → Profile → More → Save to PDF.

Profile settings not visible in the PDF export

A PDF export does not include pinned skill order, Open to Work preferences, or your exact location setting — but all of these affect how recruiters find you. Fill in what you know for a more accurate audit. Leave blank if unsure.

Location

Your profile location (as currently set on LinkedIn)

LinkedIn uses this as the primary geo filter when recruiters search by location. If you live in a village near a city, consider setting the city.

Where you are willing to work / commute to

Pinned skills

Your three pinned skills (these appear prominently on your profile)

Pinned skills appear prominently at the top of your profile for human readers. The Skills filter in Recruiter searches your full Skills section — so having the right skills added matters more than which ones you pin. Pin the most recruiter-relevant ones for readability.

Open to Work

Job title preferences (up to 5, shown to recruiters using the Open to Work filter)

These preferences override your current profile title for LinkedIn’s algorithmic matching — a high-leverage setting for anyone in active search. LinkedIn uses a controlled autocomplete list, so you’ll need to pick the closest available match for each title when setting these.

Employment type preferences
Open to Work location preferences (set separately from your profile location)
Open to Work status

The hidden switch lets Recruiter Licence holders filter by Open to Work without the public green banner. It is generally low-risk. The public banner is a personal judgement — some senior hiring managers read it negatively.
