Skill endorsements are a great way to recognize your 1st-degree connections' skills. You can only endorse skills already listed on someone's profile.
To endorse a connection's skill from their profile:
-
Navigate to the profile of the 1st degree connection.
-
Scroll down to the Skills & endorsements section and locate the name of the skill you'd like to endorse.
- If your connection has more than three skills listed, click Show more at the bottom of the section to see their whole list of skills.
-
Click the
Add icon to the left of the skill.
Note: If you're using the site in English, you can endorse a connection for multiple skills at once.
After you endorse someone, your name and picture will appear next to the skill on that person's profile. They'll also receive an email, if they’ve opted for it. The most endorsed skills will move to the top of the Skills & endorsements section.
