If you’re in consulting or the company that you work for serves multiple industries, or even if you want to target a specific industry for your next position, you might want to list those out, particularly if you’re looking to specialize.

Sometimes, recruiters receive niche roles for a very specific industry which LinkedIn Recruiter doesn’t always have available to choose from.

Therefore, we might do a general keyword search and state the specific industry.

Having your industries listed somewhere on your LI profile could help us find you.
