How to delete a Linkedin account

Have you ever thought about deleting your LinkedIn account? You can do this by PC or Android or iOS and it is useful if you don’t use the social network a lot, don’t want to be part of it anymore or just have another account and don’t use the old one anymore. But be careful: you must pay attention to what happens to your account until the moment of deletion.

What you need to know before deleting your account

Here’s what happens when you delete your LinkedIn account:

  • at first, the account can be recovered in the first 20 days of deletion;
  • you lose all the information you added to your account, such as employment, education, and other information;
  • you lose your connections, invitations, groups, messages and recommendations that you have sent or received;
  • the above items cannot be recovered even if you recovered the account a few days after deleting;
  • your profile is no longer visible on LinkedIn, but search engines can still show it for a while.
