Can I block someone on LinkedIn from seeing my profile?

[ClementGre]

Hi, I want to prevent a specific person from viewing my LinkedIn profile. Is it possible to block someone on LinkedIn from seeing my profile, and if so, what are the steps? Any tips or settings to make this effective would be really helpful.

To block someone on LinkedIn from viewing your profile, 1. Go to Settings on LinkedIn. 2. Click on 'Visibility and other settings.' 3. Scroll down to the section 'How others see your LinkedIn activity.' 4. Select the 'Who can see posts you're tagged in?' drop-down and change it to 'Nobody.' 5. Also, select the 'Who can see your shared posts and activity?' to 'Only you.'

Charliedavid, Thanks for the step-by-step instructions. That's half the battle, but I'd like to add that you should also un-check the box next to "Allow others to see your activity" for more precise control.

Folks, stop giving incomplete answers.To block someone on LinkedIn from seeing your profile effectively, follow Charliedavid's steps (1-5) and also make sure to: - Un-check the box next to "Allow others to see your activity." - Review and adjust other visibility settings to ensure you're not inadvertently giving that person access to your data. That's the complete picture, not some half-baked solution.
