Convert LinkedIn Profile to Resume or CV

Note: If you already have an account on Resumonk, please refer to these instructions.

Step 1: Download your complete LinkedIn profile as a zip file

LinkedIn provides the complete profile data in a zip file and it only takes a few minutes to download it. Resumonk can convert this zip file to an impressive resume automatically.

  1. Click here to access the 'Download your data' page in your LinkedIn account.
    In case you are not signed in to your account, you'll be shown the LinkedIn Sign Up page. Scroll to the bottom and click on the 'Already on LinkedIn? Sign in' link there. After entering your credentials, you'll be taken to the 'Download your data' page directly.
  2. Select 'Download larger data archive, including connections, contacts, and your account history' option.

    Note: LinkedIn will show this message - "Your download will be ready in about 24 hours". Please don't worry about it. They export the complete dataset in two parts. The first part has the profile information that is usually made available in approximately 10 minutes itself.

  3. Click on 'Request archive' button.

  4. You'll be asked to enter your LinkedIn account password again. Once you do that, this message will be shown - 'We will send you an email when your download is ready'. Keep this LinkedIn page open in the browser
  5. Within a few minutes, you should get an email from LinkedIn on your registered email address with them. The subject line would be 'The first installment of your LinkedIn data archive is ready!'

    Note: In our experience this email typically comes within 10 minutes or so. May be time enough to make your favorite cuppa or check out your favorite news site. :-).


    Just in case you don't see this email in your Inbox after 10 minutes, please proceed to the next step. At times, the download is ready but LinkedIn fails to send the email.

  6. You can refresh that LinkedIn page again and you'll see the 'Download archive' button there. Click on it to save the zip file on your computer. The name of the zip file would be 'Basic_LinkedInDataExport_MM-DD-YYYY.zip' where MM-DD-YYYY is today's date.

Step 2: Upload your saved LinkedIn zip file below

Important: Resumonk doesn't store this zip file on its servers.


Please note that this zip file also has information like your connections, contacts, messages and job applications. Our software reads only the profile information from this uploaded file. We are not a typical big software company that is out to sell or share your data with anyone. We value your privacy and really mean it.


If you are still concerned about uploading this data to our site, you can first remove the files other than the profile information from this zip, and then upload it.


If you face any issues while converting your LinkedIn zip file, please let us know.

Please click on the 'Browse Zip File' button to find the downloaded zip file on your computer and then click on the blue 'Upload & Convert LinkedIn Zip File' button.

Your profile would be imported in a few seconds and you will be shown Resumonk's 'Preview & Download' screen where you can change your resume's template, font, color and spacing.

You can make further changes in the text of the resume by clicking on the 'Edit Resume' tab. And you can download your resume in PDF or DOCX format by clicking on the 'Download' button.

Please note that the DOCX download and other premium features are available only to our paying customers. As a free user you will be able to download your resume only in the PDF format with our branding in its footer.

You can compare the benefits & features of our free and paid plans on the pricing page.
