It'll soon be possible to include your preferred pronoun on your LinkedIn account. The company is "reimagining" profiles to make these more inclusive. According to LinkedIn, recruiters and job seekers have said that knowing a candidate's pronouns is vital in the hiring process.

LinkedIn is also introducing "cover stories," designed to provide a "quick peek at your personality." The company is also introducing a "creator mode" to allow you to showcase your expertise. LinkedIn plans to highlight posts from profiles that enable creator mode and recommend other users to follow them.
