I am on LInkedIn. Problem I have with LinkedIn is most of the staff at my current employer is on there too. So I have to use caution about being too obvious about looking. I think my current employer would be OK with it as long as I didn’t just walk out without notice, but it would still make them jittery to know I’m looking.
And considering I’ve been looking for 3 years, without a nibble, if the future is anything like the past, then I need to not rock the boat at my current employer.
Understand, but I’m speaking of totally unsolicited nibbles from my LinkedIn. I say nibbles ‘cause I never pursued them to know if they could have resulted in actual offers.
you can still make contact with people on Linkedin without your employer seeing it.
