Quinn noticed that your LinkedIn URL contains random numbers, making it less personalized. To enhance your professional image, consider customizing your LinkedIn URL with your name, a combination of your name and school, or a mix of your name, role, and city. A personalized URL not only looks more professional but also makes it easier for others to find and connect with you.
