How do LinkedIn Stories work?
Like Snapchat, Facebook, and Instagram, LinkedIn Stories are pieces of content you can post to your profile that last 24 hours before disappearing.
The maximum length of time for a LinkedIn Story is 20 seconds. You can upload a photo from your library or snap a picture or video in real-time. And you can add multiple photos or videos to your Story at a time for users to tap through.
To view your story, or others’, just tap on the circular profile photos that appear in the top of the LinkedIn mobile app.
