First: get the right file

Download your profile from LinkedIn in four steps

Use LinkedIn's own Save to PDF option. It creates a cleaner starting document than screenshots or copied profile text.

  1. 01

    Open LinkedIn on desktop

    LinkedIn's Save to PDF option is not available in the mobile app, so start from a desktop browser.

  2. 02

    Go to your profile

    Select Me in the top navigation, then choose View profile to open your own profile page.

  3. 03

    Open More or Resources

    In the introduction section near your name and headline, select the More or Resources button.

  4. 04

    Choose Save to PDF

    LinkedIn downloads a PDF copy of the visible profile information. Keep that file handy for the next step.

Can't see Save to PDF? LinkedIn says the feature may not be available to every member and currently requires an English-language profile. It is also unavailable in the LinkedIn mobile app.

Import is the beginning

A profile and a resume have different jobs.

LinkedIn helps people explore your career. A resume helps one employer decide whether your evidence matches one role. Keep the facts, then change the emphasis.
