The Featured section allows you to showcase samples of your work to people who view your LinkedIn profile. This is a great way to provide evidence of your skills and experience.
You can feature your best work samples, such as:
-
LinkedIn posts that you’ve created or re-shared.
-
Articles that you’ve authored and published on LinkedIn.
-
Links to external websites, for example your personal blog or portfolio.
-
Media that you can upload, for example your images, documents, presentations, and videos.
To protect the privacy of other LinkedIn members, you can’t feature posts from LinkedIn Events that you’re attending, or Groups that you’re a part of.
Note: You must have already authored and published a post or article on the LinkedIn platform to be able to add it to your Featured section.
