On Desktop:

  1. Open LinkedIn
    Go to LinkedIn and log into your account.

    • Click on your profile picture or your name in the top menu (typically located at the top right).
    • Alternatively, you can go to your profile by clicking on “Me” and then selecting “View Profile” from the dropdown menu.
  3. Copy Your LinkedIn URL
    • Once on your profile page, the URL in your browser’s address bar is your LinkedIn profile link.
    • It usually looks like this: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yourname/
    • Highlight the link, right-click, and select “Copy”, or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + C (Windows) or Cmd + C (Mac).

On Mobile App:

    • Tap your profile photo or the “Me” icon in the navigation bar (bottom-right corner).
    • Then, tap “View Profile” to access your LinkedIn profile page.
  3. Copy Your Profile Link
    • Once you’re on your profile, tap the “More” button (three dots) under your name and headline.
    • From the dropdown menu, select “Copy URL” or “Share via” (depending on your device), then choose “Copy to Clipboard”.

Customizing Your LinkedIn Profile Link

You can also customize your LinkedIn URL to make it easier to share and more professional.
