How to Shorten & Personalize Your LinkedIn Address to Use in YourResume
This post is for all in my network. It explains how to shorten and change the wording of your name in your LinkedIn address.
You should follow the below steps and then add your personalized LinkedIn address to the top of your resume, with your email address and phone number.
You KNOW that LinkedIn is the first place any prospective employer will look you up. (And they will look you up.) Don’t make it hard for them to find you.
🔹 BROWSER (Easiest):
> Click on your picture and go to your profile.

🔹 IPAD (App)
Go to your PUBLIC profile.
- In the top section of your regular profile page, the buttons “Open To,” “Add Section,” and “…” appear. Click on the three dots. This will open a list of three options. The third is “Contact info.” Click on that.
- A menu will appear with your personal info. Go to the top item, “Profile,” under which appears your .url.
- Click on the stylus pencil in the upper right corner of the Contact menu box (or click on the .url). That will take you to your public profile. In the upper right corner, you can edit and personalize your LinkedIn address.
