Should I Upload My CV to LinkedIn?

You shouldn’t necessarily post your CV directly on your profile, but you can upload your CV to LinkedIn when applying for specific job openings through the job search feature. Simply find the position you're interested in and attach your CV when applying.

LinkedIn is a public platform, and uploading your full CV could expose personal information you may not want to share widely. Instead, complete all sections of your LinkedIn profile, including your profile summary, work experience, professional skills, and recommendations.
