1.1.1. From the nontechnical perspective, LinkedIn is a company which really cares about your professional career development.

11.10.2. spam is bad for recruitment

11.10.2.1. Spam Is Bad For Recruitment LinkedIn is not, in fact, a business network — individuals on LinkedIn represent themselves, not their businesses. And as LinkedIn’s content is mostly user-generated, the incentive is for the users to produce material that promotes themselves. This creates a conflict. Most people aren’t looking to change jobs all the time. Instead, they want to communicate and build relationships. However, because LinkedIn’s revenue streams and design restrict typical business forms of communication and facilitate paid ones, most interactions on the platform are low-frequency and one-directional in nature, such as recruitment offers and sales pitches. As a result, LinkedIn is now, at best, a business card holder. At worst, it’s a delivery service for spam. Indeed, LinkedIn’s weak MAU (monthly active user) figures show this, as only one-quarter of its members use the site every month. This low level of engagement has made the product less and less useful for recruiting. Top performers in some industries, like tech, try to avoid LinkedIn as they get bombarded by recruiters. With both recruiters and top talent not finding what they need on LinkedIn, real business interaction is carried out on other platforms. Spotting the best talent is actually far easier with tools like Talentbin, Stack Overflow, and Github, which aggregate or facilitate positive interactions and allow skilled individuals to display their work — showing why they’re good at what they do. Solutions like these, whose models are predicated on quality interaction, are changing the game for recruiters and top talent.

11.11. recruitment business

11.11.1. Open candidates feature

11.11.1.1. discreetly signal when you're looking for a job

11.11.1.2. , is always looking for ways of getting people to share more of their details and keep them up to date. This applies here, too. Once you turn on the feature that will privately let recruiters know you are looking for work, the company will give you an opportunity to revisit and update your own profile.

11.11.1.3. Open Candidates is possibly one of the most practical and helpful applications of some of LinkedIn’s technology

11.11.1.4. I’ve seen countless people note on their LinkedIn profiles that they do not, under any circumstances, want to get contacted by recruiters on there. The fact that people have had to put this on their profile pages is a sign of how annoying LinkedIn can be for some. If the Open Candidates feature gets used as it should, some of that spammy element could start to subside.

11.11.1.5. if you turn on Open Candidates, the “looking for new work” signal will only be beamed out to recruiters who are not in any way connected to the place where you currently work. That means that even if you are looking, you won’t jeapordize your current job in the process. You can then share your profile with that recruiter privately, too.

11.11.2. Next generation career pages

11.11.2.1. Company culture

12.5.1. Lynda.com's password leaks

12.5.1.1. 55000 users' passwords were in the breached database

12.6. for sales organization

12.6.1. if LinkedIn is to be a useful platform for sales organizations, it needs to focus more on the organisation, not just the individual. It must also utilise the vast amount of data that is not user generated and combine it with existing content to create a more complete picture of companies and their characteristics, vastly improving its ability to help sales and marketing teams.

12.7. protection about its API

12.7.1. the company should also end its protectionist policy with regard to its API. By not sharing its data with others, LinkedIn safeguards some of its revenues, but also restricts integration with business workflows – relegating the network to continue to be one focused on individuals rather than businesses.
