Comment on Microsoft's LinkedIn: If our AI gets it wrong, that's your problem
LoamImprovement@beehaw.org 5 weeks agoIf I didn’t need to have a profile there for work I wouldn’t. I had two jobs that were kind enough to tell me when I asked that they immediately passed on me because my resume had no LinkedIn or Facebook, and I deleted my Facebook a year ago.

That sucks. And the only way to fix it is to get people not to play.
I am on hiring committees for a large firm for it positions. When people put their linked in on their resumes, I see it as a negative. If they can’t value their personal data, I don’t see how they can value my companies.

That just makes job hunting suck even more. Now you need to also check whether LinkedIn gets you hired or passed on.

Your merits matter most to me. But we all need to get the hell away from that platform.
