How to Turn Your LinkedIn Profile Into a Professional CV in 5 Minutes
Step-by-step guide to importing your LinkedIn profile data into a polished CV. Copy, paste, and let AI do the formatting - no manual retyping needed.
Your LinkedIn profile already contains most of the information you need for a CV - work experience, education, skills, certifications. But copying it all manually into a CV template takes forever.
Here's how to turn your LinkedIn profile into a professional, formatted CV in under 5 minutes using Tuelio's AI Import.
Step 1: Copy Your LinkedIn Profile
- Open your LinkedIn profile in a browser (not the mobile app)
- Scroll to the top of your profile
- Press Ctrl+A (or Cmd+A on Mac) to select all text
- Press Ctrl+C (or Cmd+C) to copy
Don't worry about the extra text (navigation, ads, etc.) - the AI will filter it out automatically.
Step 2: Open Tuelio's Import Feature
- Go to tuelio.com and create a free account (or sign in)
- Create a new CV or open an existing one
- Click the Import tab in the editor toolbar (the upload icon)
Step 3: Paste and Import
- Paste your LinkedIn text into the text area (Ctrl+V)
- Click "Import & Fill CV"
- Wait 5-10 seconds while AI processes your text
Tuelio's AI will automatically extract and fill in:
- Personal Info - Name, headline, email, phone, location, LinkedIn URL
- Work Experience - All positions with company, title, dates, and key achievements
- Education - Degrees, institutions, dates
- Skills - Technical and professional skills with estimated proficiency levels
- Languages - With proficiency levels (A1-C2/Native)
- Certifications - Names, issuers, dates
Step 4: Review and Polish
After import, review each section in the Sections tab:
- Check that dates and job titles are correct
- Add or edit bullet points for your most recent roles
- Adjust skill proficiency levels if needed
- Add a professional summary if one wasn't extracted
Step 5: Choose a Template and Export
- Browse the 8 professional templates in the preview panel
- Customize colors and fonts in the Theme tab
- Check your ATS score and make improvements
- Download as PDF or share with a public link
Pro Tips
- Keep your LinkedIn updated first - The AI can only extract what's there
- Add achievements LinkedIn doesn't have - Numbers, metrics, and specific results that make your CV stand out
- Use the AI Optimizer after import - Paste a job description and let AI tailor your imported CV for a specific role
- Works with any text - Not just LinkedIn. You can paste an old CV, a bio, or even notes - AI extracts what it can
Why Not Just Use LinkedIn's PDF Export?
LinkedIn's built-in "Save to PDF" feature creates a basic document that:
- Looks generic and unprofessional
- Uses a fixed layout you can't customize
- Isn't optimized for ATS systems
- Doesn't let you tailor for specific jobs
With Tuelio, you get a professionally formatted CV with your choice of 8 templates, customizable design, ATS optimization, and AI-powered improvements - all starting from the same LinkedIn data.
