#LinkedIn is sharing your personal details as well as photographs with lots of other data hoarders.

@publicvoit unfortunately i need to keep a linkedin account to apply for certain grants my college offers, and once I graduate I imagine I will need it to try to find a job :(
i'll certainly delete it as soon as i'm able to though!!

@b I consider my CV a high profile one. When I was looking for a job 7 years ago, I activated all #Linkedin features for job availability and such.

None. Not a single promising job opportunity derived from it.

Not from my personal Linkedin network, not from any headhunter or similar.

Linkedin was of no use to me despite all data provided and a reasonable large network built.

While I was contacted by 3 job agencies that were able to provide me good job offers. They didn't find me via Linkedin.

Therefore, for me I would not bet on a job that I get via Linkedin.

YMMV
