How to Reset your Password on LinkedIn

We all have so much going on in our heads, it’s no surprise that some things can slip our minds from time to time. Where we left our keys, or that ancient jumper, or our favourite stapler. We’ve all done it, lost things we could do with keeping to hand. But when these missing things are vital for your job or professional admin, it can be a real problem. Passwords are a big one. They have to be complex and hard to decipher but that can often mean that they’re much easier to forget. That’s why it’s important to know how to reset your password on LinkedIn. This way when disaster strikes, you’re not locked out of your account. Ensuring you’re not missing out on valuable professional resources and connections.

But unlike finding socks or hunting down your car keys, resetting your password on LinkedIn is much less strenuous. Just in case you don’t know, let us give you a quick rundown.
