I've seen a few colleagues' linkedin pages. Some people (some HR
resources and related) insist that one MUST have a linkedin account in
order to achieve anything at all.
I have received many 'add' requests from people who left the company in
one way or the other, people that I have spoken briefly with once,
maybe twice. Which I haven't obliged to, of course. First, I do not
have a linkedin account and if I did, why would I add people I do not
know ? It means nothing at all at best, and in the worse cases can be
detrimental.
I think there are a good quantity of people out there who knows that
linkedln means not much at all.
Maybe the intent at the beginning was good, who knows.
Cheers.
