Because I've been building my LinkedIn profile over the last couple of months today I wanted to test and see how good my profile actually is in the eye of potential employers, and not any employers, digital agencies located in the US!
But before we can go into the technical details here are a few of the things I've done obtain a complete and attractive LinkedIn profile:

Look for the jobs that have this tiny LinkedIn Apply badge, it means you can apply with your LinkedIn profile, it literally takes seconds to apply:

I'm sure there won't be many, but the ones that are interested will usually sign up if I contact them and treat them like a friend. Oh, and they'll get a discount to sweeten the deal
This is something I do to find clients, but a bit more advanced :D :D
Adding the heads of companies will always look good when someone checks out your profile. Another good thing that comes from it is that these people may just contact you directly on LinkedIn after you become a connection to them :D
I've had plenty of headhunters contact me because they found me through the LinkedIn search results, but these are typically worthless messages because they can't really do much with me since I don't have a degree. The people I look to work with the CEO's and Presidents of the companies. I'll usually send a message here and there after I get connected with someone who is high up at a company and just introduce myself. I won't pitch to them and say why they need my services, I'll just plant the seed of what I do and I'll try to carry on a basic conversation about either LinkedIn or their niche. People love talking about themselves so you can ask extremely basic stuff like "How's the weather been out there? It's absolutely miserable here". After about 10 conversations with these people, you can then see if they need your services. I say 10 because they will have their guard up for a while after you're a connection. They won't want to hear you pitching to them until after they know about you. You'll basically be a digital friend to them and they'll be more willing to hear what you have to say and they could even share your website or business with their friends, family or even their LinkedIn connections :D
I might just try out your method to see if I can get some good contract work from companies looking to build an SEO and Marketing team :D I'm sure there won't be many, but the ones that are interested will usually sign up if I contact them and treat them like a friend. Oh, and they'll get a discount to sweeten the deal :D

This makes me wonder whether or not you would have got the same response, if you had not done all those same things or only some of them. Like if you hadn't posted any articles or completed every part of your profile and the like. If you had just put some skills there without anything to back those skills up (through the expert articles you posted). Would you have still got the same response? Or do you think those things were definite contributing factors for getting that response and those interview invitations?
Regardless, I think you've shown just how much of a powerhouse that LinkedIn can be for smart minded, business focused entrepreneurs like yourself who are willing and very able when it comes to knowing about the things in your industry that you're looking for work in. Of course, it helps if you have a blinding CV and some skills and abilities to boot as well!
Regarding that, (your CV/resume), did you attach just a plain white paper CV? Or did you make a Infographic resume? I'm still to make an infographic resume for myself yet based on my standard white paper CV. But when I do, I'll be testing it on LinkedIn.
Then I'll come back here and let you know my results also!
So thanks a lot mate and good luck in your ventures on LinkedIn!
Cheers!
Mike. Nice one Cristian! Thanks for posting this mate. I wanted you to to sort of get a bit of an insight into what you was doing to go about getting those interviews that you got on it. It looks like you've really put a lot of emphasis into this and gone "all out" on your profile. And for that, it looks like it's been paying off for you as well? In that you are getting interview requests from some big names and companies. And I would imagine that those businesses and companies thoroughly checked out your profile first, saw that you had completed everything and saw the articles you had written and liked what you had to say about yourself and what you'd written about in those articles. Hence the invitation for an interview! :) This makes me wonder whether or not you would have got the same response, if you had not done all those same things or only some of them.
