LinkedIn Year in Review: Look Back at Your Professional Journey

Every year, social platforms like Spotify and Instagram glance back at what we did, who we connected with, and what we enjoyed most. Now, LinkedIn Year in Review has joined that club, giving professionals a personalized recap of their year on the world’s largest career network.

Introduced in late 2025, the LinkedIn Year in Review isn’t just another flashy feature. It’s an engaging way to pause, reflect, and make sense of your user activity and achievements across the year. Whether you use LinkedIn actively or just dip in occasionally, this new recap gives you a snapshot that’s fun, insightful, and uniquely yours.

What exactly is the LinkedIn Year in Review?

At its core, the LinkedIn Year in Review is a personalized look at how you used the platform over the past 12 months. It’s similar to the popular “Wrapped” formats many of us are familiar with, only this one focuses on your professional world.

Here’s what it includes:

• Connections and Followers: See the number of new professional relationships that you established and their current workplace.
• Engagement Insights: Find out how frequently you posted, commented, or got a response – to get a feel of influence.
• Skills and Certifications: See the new professional skills you added or new credentials that you earned.
• Time and Habits: How you acted on LinkedIn in 2025 – the days, hours, and trends that made your year.
• Character Summary: A personalized personality overview of what you are like to work with, a fun description of yourself based on how you interact in the workplace.

In the end, concentrating on those aspects, the recap of the year-end at LinkedIn encompasses both hard and entertaining narrative elements. It provides you with an analysis of engagement that would not be limited to raw statistics.

Why does this matter more than you think?

Others would say: Is this a fun summary? The response is yes, but more than that. As soon as you view your user behavior in clear images and segmentation, you will have a clearer understanding of your habits, strengths, and areas that might need a higher level of attention in the year to come.

The Year in Review can assist in the following way:

Celebrate Growth

The number of new connections you made or the number of posts that you used to generate a conversation can make you feel confident and reaffirm the direction you are taking in your profession.

Understand Your Engagement

The engagement insights, such as with whom you engaged the most or which times you feel most active, help you know how and when you are making a difference.

Plan for Next Year

By looking at your activity, you can have smarter goals in 2026, be it to exercise more, have a certain number of followers, or work on your skill development.
