Did you—like most of us—sign up for LinkedIn using your Google Account? If so, you might be wondering, “Wait, where’s my password?” The truth is, when you use Google to create your LinkedIn account, no password is set up by default.
It can create some issues for you! But, hey, don’t take our word for it—here is what some users have to say about logging in with Gmail credentials for their LinkedIn profile!
Why Does This Matter?
We want to ensure a smooth, hassle-free experience when you’re setting up your LinkedIn profile, especially during the crucial step of connecting your account.
In the screenshot above, we need you to enter your LinkedIn password and switch off two-step verification setting for a hassle-free experience.
If you have an email/Gmail password set and you prefer to sign in with your email, you’ll need to reset the password and make a dedicated LinkedIn password (only to be used for LinkedIn login). Honestly, the bargain is quite a bit!
Imagine letting go of 75,000 leads a month or 2500 easily scraped leads, for the cost of remembering one password? Doesn’t sound profitable at all, right?
If you haven’t set up a LinkedIn password yet, don’t worry! Resetting and creating one is quick and easy. Just follow these simple steps.
Step 1: Go to Your Account Settings
Log in to LinkedIn and click on your profile picture in the top-right corner. From the dropdown menu, select Settings & Privacy.
Step 2: Navigate to ‘Sign In & Security’
In the Settings menu, find the Sign In & Security section. Under this, you’ll see an option for Change Password.
Step 3: Click ‘Forgot Password’
Since there’s no existing password, select the Forgot Password link. This will prompt LinkedIn to send a password reset email to the address associated with your account.
Step 4: Check Your Email
Go to your inbox and look for the email from LinkedIn. If you don’t see it, check your spam folder just in case. Once you find the email, click on the link provided. This will take you to a page where you can create your new password.
Make sure your password is strong and secure but easy for you to remember. Think a mix of upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and a special character or two.
