If you don't want to get approached by recruiters then don't be on LinkedIn in the first place. This is just my opinion though.

- KenCochrane 14y agoLinkedIn is for more then just getting job offers. I don't use Facebook, so this is my way of keeping in touch with people I have worked with in the past. Also, I don't mind getting emails telling me about jobs I might like, but as long as they are targeted and relevant to me. Most of the people sending these emails don't even read my profile.
- mavrck 14y agoThere's more to linkedin than recruiting.
- Avenger42 14y agoIssues with that: 1) I started on LinkedIn 5 years ago. I have a few recommendations from former managers/coworkers on there. So even though I don't wish to be contacted by recruiters today, deleting it would be cutting off my nose to spite my face. 2) If I did delete it, then when I did decide I want to start job-searching again, and start a new LinkedIn account, it would be a big red flag to my current employer, assuming I wanted to keep my job search quiet.
