Randy Knobloch was listed on LinkedIn as a Security Consultant
In fact, we messaged one another!
You mean LinkedIn is a real place?* I just get spam from them from
people I've never heard of wanting to engage in some kind of
conversation about a business I'm not in.
It is! :-)
Here's the site of my protégé, a fellow of whom I'm enormously proud.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan...orth-97498226/
You'll even find a 'Recommendation' from me there! ;-)
I don't know how I ever got a linkedin account, but I constantly get
messages from people wanting to "connect" with me whatever that means.
So what's the purpose of this site?
A bit like Facebook for business. And a glorified business card.
Is it like a lonely hearts thing for businessmen?
Yeah, kinda
So no real purpose then.* I'm quite sure a business finds customers
without that ****.
One principal purpose is for recruitment.
Recruitment is traditionally done through newspapers, or their online
equivalent.* I've always looked for jobs in for example s1jobs.com
It's for the opposite purpose. Employers looking for staff!
Are you employable? Professionally qualified? If so, in what field?
Computer technician, although I've got a degree in Physics.
Wow! My late son got a good Physics degree from Manchester University
then worked for ICL as a computer whizz until his tragic death.
