Telcom giant Airtel has introduced a new benefit for its customers in India and now has three months of LinkedIn Premium Career free of charge. At nearly Rs 3k, this is part of Airtel’s Insider Rewards program which offers lifestyle and digital benefits along with telecom services.
What the Offer Includes
The free LinkedIn Premium Career subscription provides access to several advantages that help develop and grow in the workplace. Users can view information about applicant profiles, gain “featured applicant” status in job searches, and send direct InMail to recruiters and professionals as well. Additionally, subscribers can access LinkedIn Learning courses on business, technology, and creative skills with thousands of modules available.
How to Claim the Benefit
Airtel customers who are eligible can activate the offer through the Airtel Thanks app. On the Rewards or Insider Rewards page, they can see the LinkedIn Premium Career option and follow the activation steps. Once verified, they will be directed to LinkedIn to complete the subscription process. Notifications of the offer will also be sent via SMS or push alerts so that customers don’t miss out.
Eligibility Criteria
The offer is available only to existing Airtel customers in India that have a LinkedIn account, but it does not apply to subscribers who have or have previously paid for LinkedIn Premium. This means the benefit is targeted at new Premium users, who get a chance to see how the platform works.
Why It Matters
Airtel’s collaboration with LinkedIn is indicative of the increasing trend in telecom companies to offer value-added digital services. Alongside connectivity, Airtel is positioning itself as a lifestyle brand, providing perks such as Adobe Express Premium, EazyDiner Prime, and OTT subscriptions. For professionals, LinkedIn Premium is crucial for networking benefits and career development.
Airtel’s free LinkedIn Premium Career subscription for three months is a timely benefit for professionals navigating India’s competitive job market. Airtel is redefining customer engagement and offering tangible value beyond connectivity. For job seekers and working professionals alike, this initiative is an opportunity for visibility, skills, and job opportunities without spending money.
