our HR intranet portal has a “link your LinkedIn profile” on it and I refuse to use it.

it seems to scrape the profile and puts the LinkedIn photo/name as your email and other profile photos.

a guy I worked with had a trash LinkedIn account that he created to see what LinkedIn was about but ultimately he didn’t use it. But probably because he is a boomer, he thought that it was mandatory to include a LinkedIn to the new hr system. so he linked the trash account.

so he was known as “Big Stiffy” in HR for about a month.

it was surprisingly difficult to get it removed.

why do people get mad about linkedin, it’s great for looking up people who you had meetings with 4 months ago and/or getting referral bonuses for randos who hit you up on there

yeah but would you plug your LinkedIn into your current employers HR system though?

although I cannot confirm as I use a Mac outside of a work setting :smugmrgw:
