Skill Endorsements

 Due to high support volume, it may take longer than usual to hear back from our Support Agents.  

Skill Endorsements - Overview

Including specific skills on your LinkedIn profile is a great way to showcase your abilities to other members, such as your peers, colleagues, managers, and even recruiters. You can add a maximum of 50 skills to your profile. They're a simple and effective way of building your professional brand and engaging your network.

Once you've added a skill to your profile, your skills can be validated by 1st-degree connections to reinforce their weighting. These are called skill endorsements, which are different than recommendations. When a connection endorses your skills, it contributes to the strength of your profile, and increases the likelihood that you'll be discovered for opportunities related to the skills you possess.

You don't need to request a skill endorsement in order to receive one. By default, you'll receive a notification when a connection endorses one of your skills. However, you can manage the frequency of the skill endorsement notifications.

To see or manage skills and endorsements, scroll down to the Skills & Endorsements section of your profile. Skill endorsements are located to the right of the associated skill, along with information about the members who've endorsed you. You can also re-order the display order of your skills.

If one of your connections endorses your skill but you don't want to acknowledge it, simply hide the skill endorsement. You can also opt out of receiving endorsements to prevent additional endorsements from your connections.

Endorsing your connections' skills is a way to recognize any professional abilities that you've seen them demonstrate. You may be asked to provide feedback on skills and endorsements. Endorsing your colleagues can also help you to maintain strong connections with the people in your network. However if you change your mind about a skill endorsement that you've given, you can remove it.

You can manage how you receive and give skill endorsements by updating your profile settings.
