Your Profile level meter

Last updated: 9 months ago

Important to know

Once all the recommended sections are added, you’ll receive an All-star profile rating, and the profile level meter will no longer be displayed on your profile.

The profile level meter shows you how complete your profile is. The completeness level of your profile will increase as you add more suggested sections. This helps improve the discoverability of your profile in search results, and to increase profile search appearances.

Your profile level is only visible to you. The profile level meter is displayed on both desktop and the LinkedIn mobile app.

All members start off as a Beginner, and upon completion of four sections will advance to Intermediate, thereafter on adding the remaining recommended sections (a total of seven) will achieve an All-star profile.

After starting off as a Beginner, you can add the following recommended sections to achieve an All-star profile:

  • Profile Photo
  • Location
  • Industry
  • Education
  • Position
  • Skills
  • Summary
To view your Profile level meter:
  1. Click the Me icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
  2. Select View Profile.
  3. Your Profile level will be displayed under the Suggested for you section.

  4. Follow the prompts below the meter to move to the next level by adding recommended sections to your profile.
