Hi. Is anybody fluent in LinkedIn. Here is my ?

There are 3 states that someone has, public/semi-private/private. If I am looking someone up, can you tell if they are semi or private and if they are what can you still see (e.g. location, current employer)

I tried to figure it out by search, but all the answers are about one’s own status.

Can you clarify what you want to know and why?

I’m currently on the end of my premium trial and could submit a request for an explanation, but I am not sure I understand what you are trying to accomplish.

Have you tried searching for LinkedIn profiles via browser instead on in the LinkedIn app?

Hi @Jennifer Lyons I am looking up LI profile URL’s and am wondering what I see if someone is private or semi-private. Would I still see their employer, location and number of connections.

I believe in premiere I would see.

If you want to DM me their names I could screenshot for you. Otherwise I can ask tomorrow.

@Jennifer Lyons The challenge is I can’t tell who has a private or semi-private profile so can’t do a screen shot. I will probably have someone I know change their status and see what changes. LI can be opaque at times.

BTW/ How are you doing?
