If you're serious about your professional presence online, your LinkedIn profile URL is one small detail that can make a big difference.

A Quick Heads-Up:
Before you hit save, take a moment to think about where your current LinkedIn URL might be listed. If it’s on your resume, in your email signature, or shared with recruiters, you’ll need to update those manually. LinkedIn won’t automatically redirect traffic from your old URL to your new one.
It’s a small change, but if overlooked, it can lead to broken links at a time when visibility matters most.
A clean LinkedIn URL isn’t just about aesthetics, it shows attention to detail and reinforces your personal brand. It also makes it easier for hiring managers and recruiters to find and remember you.
