After canceling your premium membership, you will return to a Basic (free) account and lose access to all Premium features at the end of your current billing cycle.
LinkedIn is a great way to find jobs, connect with professionals or build leads. However, before subscribing to a LinkedIn premium membership, you should carefully consider if LinkedIn is the ideal way to build a network and if it is worth the price.
