I’ve been trying for some time now to find the button ‘unsusbscribe’ on your website but to no avail.

Could you please delete my details (Samuel Kyeremeh, Scottish Environment Protection Agency) from your database.

Thanks.

Samuel

I am a bit reticent about posting Q’s to groups as those Q’s then show up as activity on my part to my whole network. For ex., say I am working with a recruiter (who is in my network) on a job with a co. in LA. Meanwhile, I also have an interest in another job in NY and I post to group indicating my interest in that (NY) job or industry or attempt to get contacts. I am concerned the recruiter would then see my activity and be less likely to promote my candidacy vigorously with the LA co. Can I post a Q in a group and designate that only those group members see it?

Thanks

I find the whole company creation function the weakest on Linked-In. When you imput past or present positions there is no prompting with possible company listings so that unless you input the name in exactly the same way that colleagues have already done, you end up creating a new company which makes finding past colleagues far more difficult.

When I have finally tracked past colleagues I find that we have all done the same thing and there are six listing for what is effectively the same company.
