I'm not a fan of LinkedIn. People have 'verified' that I have tons of skills that they have no idea whether or not I actually have.
I've also found that plenty of people my age (25) dislike it for various reasons.
Maybe the problem is that the older guys have all been forced into management paths and have been working on nontechnical skills. I really like the valve idea that management is a skill, not a career path.
- bigiain 11y agoFWIW plenty of people my age (almost 50) dislike it as well (possibly not for the exact same reasons, but still...)
- Joof 11y agoI'm also not a social network fan. Why have my entire work history public? Or want recruiters to have 24/7 access to me when I'm not looking for work. There are lots of reasons not to bother with linked-in.
