With changes aimed at helping both content producers and new hires, LinkedIn is continuing its steady evolution this week. The platform is improving its value for all types of users, from highlighting the fastest-growing positions for recent graduates to offering you more control over video embeds. LinkedIn’s most recent updates focus on clarity, relevance, and momentum, regardless of whether you’re entering the job market for the first time or using video to establish thought leadership.
New Video-Only Embeds for Cleaner Content Integration
LinkedIn now allows you to embed just the video from a post – no caption, no extra visuals, just the content you want to highlight. This is a great improvement for anyone managing websites, blogs, or media platforms where a clean and focused layout matters.

Full post, compact post, and video-only are the three embed styles available at this time. For newsletters, news articles, or landing pages where a native LinkedIn video adds value but the surrounding post could be distracting, the most recent option is particularly helpful. Additionally, the update features a more polished, updated appearance that maintains the content’s professionalism and visual coherence across formats.
This minor but clever modification increases the usefulness of native LinkedIn video outside of the platform and gives creators more options for expanding the audience for their work.
