LinkedIn carousel template for students

Students rarely have a long work history, but they have projects, courses and internships worth explaining. This template turns one project into a short story recruiters can follow. Below is a sample carousel Slidler made from the text in the editor; change the text to yours and make your own in under a minute.

Sample carousel (5 of 8 slides)

What I learned building my final-year project Swipe for 6 key pointsWe set out to predict bus delays from open city data, and the first model was worse than guessing.Cleaning the data took three times longer than training any model.Talking to two bus drivers taught us more about delays than a week of feature engineering.We shipped a simple map instead of a dashboard, and people actually used it.

How to use this template

  1. Cover: the project in one line.
  2. The problem and the first thing that went wrong.
  3. Two or three lessons, each tied to a decision you made.
  4. Close with what you are looking for and where to see the work.

Tip: Link the repo or demo in the first comment; LinkedIn shows posts with outside links in the body less often, according to many creators' experience.

Edit the sample and make your carousel (free, no sign-up)

The first line becomes the cover; each sentence becomes a slide. Replace the sample with your own words.
