Mouse over the chevron and you will see a preview of the page and a link to view the cached version of the page.

Mouse over the search result, you will get a chevron to the right of the result. In this case, I searched for site: Eric Cantor Majority Leader. Particularly if its a common name, adding a title, company, location or other info to your search will help to narrow the results and find the right person. Notice the title and location indicate it’s a result for an individual profile. You are looking for a search result that goes directly to the individual, not a LinkedIn search results page. Instead, use Google and include LinkedIn in your search (or even start the search with site: to limit your results to just LinkedIn). Searching in LinkedIn, this is all I was able to see of his profile:ĭon’t start with LinkedIn. Here is an example using Eric Cantor, a Congressman from Virginia that I don’t share any groups with and isn’t a connection. Of course, you can solve this with a premium membership, but here is how to view the full public profile without a premium account. LinkedIn profile access is even more restricted, today you now need a premium account to view third degree connections. You look someone up on LinkedIn only to find they are a third degree connection (or not even!) and you get a profile page with basically no information.
