How different is CV from Linkedin profile?

I’m in the process of building the CV for the Global Talent [Exceptional Talent] endorsement application [stage1].

Technation official guide [Global Talent Visa | Tech Nation] has a very high-level explanation/requirement for CV

CV with any career and publication history included. It must be typed and be up to 3 sides of A4 paper.

I understand its a personal choice what to include & what not to [apart from career & publication history as mentioned in the guide]. But is CV going to be a view of the Linkedin Profile? i.e. selectively cherry-picking pieces within one’s LinkedIn profile?

Or are there some distinct things included in CV which won’t be in one’s LinkedIn Profile?

I wanted to gauge what the group thinks here.

I’ve seen a profile not endorsed as a result of linkedin profile vs CV mismatch. So I’ll advice that your CV mirrors your LinkedIn profile.
You’ll be asked to provide both in the TN application form.

Thanks for sharing this data point. I’ll keep in mind to make sure CV and linkedin are both reflecting the latest information.
