The one place most people need a symbol is the headline, where three or four things have to sit on one line: role, company, the thing you are known for. The vertical bar (|) is the standard separator and reads as one on every device. The middle dot (·) is quieter and suits a headline that is mostly words; the bullet (•) is the same idea, heavier. The rightwards arrow (→) is the one to use when the parts are a sequence rather than a list, “CFO → founder”, and the arrows page has every variant of it.
Whichever you pick, use one kind and keep the words between them plain. The headline generator writes the words; this page supplies the thing between them.
A check mark in front of a line says the line is true, done, or included. A cross says the opposite. A star says this one matters more than the others. An arrow says one thing led to another. Used that way, a symbol replaces a word and saves the reader a beat. Used as decoration, a row of stars above a post or a sparkle after every sentence, it costs the reader a beat instead, and on a screen reader it costs them a sentence.
The same rule sorts the legal marks. Put ® on a name only if it is registered, ™ on one you treat as a brand, © with a year on work you own, and none of them on a LinkedIn post that is not an advertisement. The text formatter covers the other kind of emphasis, bold and italic, and the same warning applies there: a little reads as considered, a lot reads as shouting.

LinkedIn Text Formatter
