Re: [PLUG] MS linux

I haven't gone down the rabbit hole on this to figure it out, but it's not like they are requiring your GitHub ID. Also, if you have a LinkedIn profile, you better believe someone is going to look at it if you're applying for a job. Anyone that has made it far enough for their resume to fall on my desk gets a deep dive into searching the web for any info pertaining to them.

Idk, doesn't sound as extreme as some of the stories I've heard where employers will ask for your Facebook info during an interview. The entire purpose of LinkedIn is to have all your professional experience posted in an easy to read and standard format. If you don't have an account there, no problem, but if you do, then it's fair game to get combed over by potential employers.

Is Linux Foundation a Microsoft Branch Now?

So they want people who apply for a job at the Linux Foundation to
supply their LinkedIn account and treat nothing but Microsoft’s GitHub
as though it matters or exists. Just as Microsoft would like…


LinkedIn?
oof.
