Employer looked at my LinkedIn ?
So I applied for a summer internship, and supposedly the company is in the process of conducting interviews for the next few weeks. I noticed this morning that the employer viewed my LinkedIn page, but I haven't received any email offer yet. Should I assume I haven't gotten the gig?

No friend. It's been less than 24 hours since this employer visited your page. Probably just snooping around.

Re: Employer looked at my LinkedIn ?
After a callback I had an employer not only view my Linkedin profile, but also "friend" me. A few days later I received my ding.

The place I'll be at this summer looked at my LinkedIn profile after my callback. You really can't read into it at all.

Re: Employer looked at my LinkedIn ?
The firm I will be working at never looked at me and I had to search out people I worked with over the summer to add.
So as you can see, it's all over the map.

Re: Employer looked at my LinkedIn ?
Seems weird for potential employers to be looking at your social media profiles. Could be finding out info they aren't supposed to know.

Re: Employer looked at my LinkedIn ?
I put both links to Facebook and LinkedIn on my resume. There are multiple people on the internet with same first/last name and some a pretty weird so I don't want them to look and be turned-off.UnfrozenCaveman wrote:Seems weird for potential employers to be looking at your social media profiles.

Why have a LinkedIn profile if not for potential employers to be looking at it? Potential employment is the only reason I put up with all the LinkedIn spam.UnfrozenCaveman wrote:Seems weird for potential employers to be looking at your social media profiles.

ETA: And god help you if you put info that employers aren't supposed to know on your LinkedIn profile.
