      Why? Are colleges still promoting it or something? LinkedIn use can be almost damaging to success. I know when we receive a packet that enthusiastically references their LinkedIn, we just roll our eyes. And in my personal experience, people who spend a lot of time on LinkedIn, just spend a lot of time on social media… which would get you in big trouble where I work. Yet people still do it and get caught.

      We pretty much avoid LinkedIn like the plague. People over share and then all the sudden the committee has info in front of their eyeballs about a candidate that should never have been part of their info.
