Do you guys know if when you apply for a job on LinkedIn, if your current connections can see that you have applied for this job? I ask because it seems that every move I make, including to look at someones profile, is somehow recorded and presented in feeds etc. I want to apply for a job I have seen, but I don't obviously want my current manager and CEO to see that I am applying for other jobs, especially since I really like working where I am now - I'm just testing the water to see if I can walk on it. |

As a person who avoids LinkedIn like the PLAGUE, I have no idea. Avoid LinkedIn. |

LinkedIn is annoying how people exaggerate (to the max) their position. I LOATHE this. But I recently joined. So I'm going to try and make the most of it. |

LinkedIn is good. Head hunters and recruiters basically live off it these days - making there jobs ridiculously easy. I've been contacted by a number of head hunters/recruiters over the last couple of years (though changed jobs due to other contacts not on LinkedIn) - but its good to have that easy networking option. Plus a good way to keep in contact and network with people who aren't close but are good contacts to have (instead of Facebook etc). |

Yes, I use LinkedIn for professional acquaintances, and Facebook for all of the other shit, and I really mean shit - I litter Facebook with tons of stuff, as does everybody else. |

Yeah same here - that's why LinkedIn is great - potential employers don't see all the shit!! |
