@Zak234 you still have some outstanding items

• Have you listed all your skills under skills section?
• When you are done doing that don't forget to ask people who have reviewed your prs to give you endorsements on those skills.
• Let us know when you are done with the linkedin profile

@Zak234 I recommend the following additional steps

• Go into the Hack for LA team roster and connect with each person who did a pr review or issue completed for you
• Once they have accepted your linkedin request, go to their profile and endorse them for the skills that your issue required. So if your issue was a Figma issue, then endorse them for that, etc.
• Then wait a few days, and write to them asking them if they would consider endorsing you for that skill and reminding them of the pr or issue (including putting a link to the item).

Note: you only NEED one endorsement per skill to make it show up when recruiters are searching for you. But you do need at least one.
