LinkedIn is not updating/importing

LinkedIn is not importing, information is outdated

Updated over a month ago

LinkedIn is not importing, information is outdated, what now?

Why this happens: LinkedIn caches profile information for up to 90 days, which means recent updates to your profile may not immediately appear when imported into Huntr. This is a LinkedIn limitation, not a Huntr issue.


Quick Solutions:

Option 1: Export LinkedIn as PDF

  1. Go to your LinkedIn profile

  2. Click "More" or "Resoruces"in your profile section

  3. Select "Save to PDF"


  4. Upload this PDF directly to Huntr's Resume Builder

  5. Your most current information will now be available in Huntr

Option 2: Manual Copy & Paste

  1. Copy your updated information directly from LinkedIn

  2. Paste it into the relevant sections of Huntr's Resume Builder

  3. Make any additional edits as needed

Best Practice Moving Forward: To avoid this issue in the future, we recommend making updates directly in Huntr rather than LinkedIn first. This ensures your job search materials are always current and gives you more control over formatting and content.

💡Tip: If you need your changes to appear immediately for job applications, the manual methods above are your fastest solution while waiting for LinkedIn's cache to refresh.
