I'll connect with someone in my field and location, because those are the connections I hope to foster with LinkedIn.
One of the weirder things I've experience is people "endorsing" my skills. Many of which are skills they've certainly never seen me use. I assume they were doing it for some sort of reciprocal endorsement, but I don't want my name attached to someone's skills that I know nothing about.
- jpdoctor 14y ago> but I don't want my name attached to someone's skills that I know nothing about. The endorsements are a particularly bad move by linkedin. I've been endorsed for all sorts of things; Knowing what I've been endorsed for, I don't know why anyone would assign any credibility to those items on their website.
- uptown 14y agoMy mortgage broker endorsed my jQuery skills. While they are excellent - I doubt she knows what jQuery is.
- ryanmolden 14y agoYes, I accepted a request from someone today (first time being there in quite some time) and it immediately suggested I endorse him for a slew of skills. I presume some people just click the button, thus I largely ignore it, I assumed other techies did as well (I.e. Put no faith in someone's endorsements).
