There's always such a comment when a LinkedIn story bubbles up and I'm always baffled. Here's a crazy idea: don't publicize your email, let alone phone number.

There's always such a comment when a LinkedIn story bubbles up and I'm always baffled. Here's a crazy idea: don't publicize your email, let alone phone number.
- kaolinite 13y agoMy phone number was hidden - that's why they would ring me at work, having looked up the company phone number. They would also spam (more often) via LinkedIn messages. Of course, no privacy settings make any difference when the recruiters offer prizes to your friends if their recommendation leads to a placement. iPads are often given away around here in exchange for contact details if they lead to a hiring.
- reinhardt 13y agoFair enough, other than a few email spam per month I've never experienced the other issues. Calling the company number and asking for you sounds pretty ballsy and obnoxious move on their part.
