LinkedIn Premium Career and Premium Business both add tools on top of your free LinkedIn account. The difference is who they are built for: Career is for people looking for a job, and Business is for people who use LinkedIn to find clients, partners and companies.

Choose Premium Career if
- You are applying for jobs now, or plan to in the next few months.
- You want to message recruiters and hiring managers you are not connected with.
- You want to see how you compare with other applicants before you apply.
Choose Premium Business if
- You use LinkedIn to find clients, partners or suppliers.
- You view many profiles each week and reach the browsing limit of a free account.
- You need more InMail credits than Career gives you.
- You research companies, for example their growth and hiring trends.
What neither plan does
Premium gives you more reach and more information. It does not guarantee replies, interviews or sales. A clear headline, a complete About section and relevant experience still do most of the work, so fix your profile first. If you want help with that, see our LinkedIn Profile Optimization service.
Getting either plan at G2U
At G2U you can get Premium Career or Premium Business activated on your own LinkedIn account, as a one-time payment for the period you choose. You keep your profile, your connections and your history. Compare all LinkedIn plans and prices.
