How Many Outstanding Connection Requests Do You Have?

The number of outstanding connection requests you have on LinkedIn is often overlooked but important to check every so often. This number has a cap and LinkedIn will prevent you from sending connection requests once it has been reached. In addition, LinkedIn’s Algorithms will optimize a profile using ratios between acceptance rates and outstanding requests.

 How can you prevent bad things from happening?

Here are 5 easy steps to check your outstanding connection requests and withdraw the older ones.  

1. Log into your LinkedIn account in a browser on your Mac or PC and click on "My Network" at the top of the page.

2. In the "Invitations" box in the middle of the page, click "See all." 

3. Under the "Manage invitations" box on the next page, click "Sent."             

4. Click "Withdraw" beside the invite you want to cancel.

5. Confirm the withdrawal on the popup window.
