📌 Why this matters
Adding a vertical line creates clean visual separation between different elements of your headline, like your job title and company or multiple skill areas. This simple formatting trick transforms a cluttered run-on headline into organized, scannable sections that recruiters and connections can quickly parse. The vertical line acts as a professional divider that's more subtle than commas or dashes, giving your headline the polished look of branded content while maximizing your 220-character limit by using minimal space for maximum visual impact.
