Collectively, you don't. You'd be surprised however how much this can help individually, especially with former colleagues.

- gaius 16y agoWell yes quite - so where's the mechanism to exclude "my boss" or "managers in my company" from such updates?
- run4yourlives 16y agoThe Inbox?
- gaius 16y agoUh what? If you edit your profile or set your status to "is looking for a new job" everyone gets notified. Have you used LI?
- run4yourlives 16y agoLinked in isn't facebook. If you are using your "status" as a glorified twitter account, you're doing it wrong. If you are looking for a new job, contact the people you think may be able to help directly via message. Status messages customized to an audience type in a world of public information being available on google is a bad idea in general, regardless of linked in's behaviors.
- gaius 16y agoErm yes I know how to send a message thanks. Nevertheless if I update the skills/experience section of my profile, everyone will be notified. There's no way around your cow-orkers knowing that you've updated your CV.
- danilocampos 16y agoYou can turn that off.
- gaius 16y agoYes but I want people outside the company to see it.
- salemh 16y agoYou are "building a personal brand" to assist with your current position. If, your work asks, that is..and if you can "spin" it that way. Perhaps you wish to look current for when asking programming advice.
