For computers, click Edit public profile & URL on the far right side of the screen, then click the pencil icon in the “Edit your custom URL” tile. In the mobile app, tap the three-dot menu icon (it’s to the right of “Open to” and “Add section”) and tap Contact info. Tap the pencil icon next to the “Contact” header then tap your current public profile URL. When the next page opens, tap the pencil icon in the “Edit your custom URL” tile.
To appear straight-foward you can use your name, but if you have a more common name try adding your current profession to the URL, like “jane-doe-developer. "
Get the URL by going to your LinkedIn profile and copying it from the address bar. [1] X Research source
Use this method if your LinkedIn profile has recently been updated or polished and your profile URL is customized. There’s nothing more embarrassing than including an unfinished or out-of-date LinkedIn profile URL on your resume and then having hiring managers point it out.
If your resume is digital (meaning it’s not printed on paper) make it a hyperlink. In that case, the person can click the link to visit your LinkedIn profile. On the other hand, don’t hyperlink the text if the resume is going to be printed. A hyperlink that’s printed out will appear in a bright blue text that’s distracting. If the job is mobile, consider putting a QR code instead so the hiring manager can use that instead.
