LinkedIn has undergone a facelift, giving the professional social network newly-designed profile pages.

Revealed at a LinkedIn event in California, the update allows users to customise their pages more freely, along with new features to connect to other users.

The new profile pages now feature a larger photo at the top, with educational and professional experience placed together in the top box.

Users can also post LinkedIn updates directly from their profile page.

“Build insanely brilliant and simple products that change people’s lives. That gives them that ah-ha moment,” LinkedIn’s Deep Nishar said.

“That is the underpinning of the new LinkedIn.”
