I wouldn’t normally just re-blog something which someone else has written. However, this article from Stephen at EdenChanges is one you should definitely read and take note of; How to Manage LinkedIn Skills and Recommendations. If you are struggling to hide/remove endorsements here the advice from LinkedIn help centre.
I’m actually quite happy with how my skills and expertise looks on LinkedIn, but that’s only because I do fairly regularly check that it’s on track in terms of relevance.
If you don’t think that an endorsement for dinosaus, baskets or dangerous drugs (yes, these are real ones!) does you any favours then do something about it!!
Thanks for sharing this one out Louise. When the skill section first came out I tested it by listing “Aardvark Hunting” – which it accepted! I’m almost sorry I took it off my profile! Stephen Hart
