In short
Click the clock icon in the post box, pick any time from 10 minutes to 3 months ahead, and schedule [1]. You can reschedule or delete it later from View all scheduled posts [1]. Pages can schedule from an hour to three months ahead [2].
Schedule a post from your profile
These are LinkedIn's steps for a computer [1]:
- Click Start a post at the top of your homepage and write the post.
- Click the clock icon in the lower-right corner.
- Pick the date and time. You can type an exact time instead of using the 30-minute steps [1].
- Click Next, check the time shown above the post, then click Schedule.
Any time from 10 minutes to 3 months ahead works [1]. LinkedIn converts it to UTC using your device's time zone [1], so set the time while your device is on the clock you mean.
What you can't schedule
LinkedIn doesn't schedule events or jobs [1]. Everything else you post from the post box can wait for its time, including a carousel uploaded as a document: the steps for that are in how to post a carousel on LinkedIn.
Posts can run to 3,000 characters [3]. The LinkedIn text formatter adds bold and bullet points before you paste the post in.

Schedule with a tool
LinkedIn's own scheduling is enough if LinkedIn is where you post. A tool helps when the same week also goes to Instagram or Facebook, or someone checks your posts first.
Postmosis schedules LinkedIn posts with text alone, pictures or a video, from the same calendar as your other networks, and a reviewer can approve a post before it's allowed to go out. See scheduling
