Note: You can change this URL, but if you do, LinkedIn won’t redirect users to the new one, so choose carefully and make it your permanent URL. If that has already been taken, as mine was, then choose an alternative. In the message box that appears, enter a new URL for example your name. ![]() Click on Customize your Public Profile URL. On the top right hand side, there is a box to Your Public Profile URL and in this includes your current URL.You may have to hover your mouse over the link for the pen to appear. Your LinkedIn URL is shown under your image, click on the pen icon to the right of it.Logon to your LinkedIn account and navigate to the Edit Profile screen.Google your name and either your location or job title and see what shows first.)

One of the first things that I check when I review someone’s LinkedIn profile is whether or not they have personalised their LinkedIn URL. ![]()
