Frontend Developer keywords for resume and LinkedIn
Frontend searches are framework driven. A recruiter hunting for react talent types react, typescript, and next.js into LinkedIn Recruiter and filters out everyone else, so generic labels like web developer bury you. Keywords also signal seniority: accessibility, design systems, and web performance read as senior, while html and css alone read as entry level. Use the terms from the job posts you want, not the ones from your first job.
