77. LinkedIn Myths That Are Costing You Interviews (and What to Do Instead)

Customer Success Career Coach, Career Tips and Proven Job Interview Strategies For Every Customer Success Manager

Think your LinkedIn is working for you? Think again. If you’re still treating your profile like a digital resume, posting because you think you “should,” or stressing about building a “personal brand” (cringe)—you’re leaving job opportunities on the table.

In this episode, I break down the most common LinkedIn myths keeping talented Customer Success job seekers invisible in 2025. Forget everything you’ve heard about content creation or copy-pasting your resume. Instead, I’ll reveal what hiring managers actually look for, why keywords matter more than ever, and the simple shifts that can turn your LinkedIn into an interview magnet.

The outdated advice ends here. And these data-backed strategies will help you finally stand out (no vague headlines or influencer hacks required).

Curious what your LinkedIn really needs to unlock new career milestones? Hit play and discover the LinkedIn strategies nobody else is talking about. Don’t miss the profile tweaks that could be the game-changer between getting ghosted and getting hired.
