I just use my LinkedIn profile as a CV. If for some reason they want a PDF copy, I just use the export to PDF functionality.

I have gotten feedback from many recruiters that I have an awesome profile, and some use it as an example to show others how to build theirs.

Can you share your profile? how good is the exported PDF?

The reason some companies insist on a document is that they feed it to their HR systems, which is not (always) possible with Linkedin

Just tested the PDF export. The format isn't really optimal and wastes a lot of space IMO. It's serviceable I guess. I'd still send it to anyone that asks for a PDF if they need something that isn't a LinkedIn profile.
