Excellent article. I’m looking for work at the moment and am looking for ways to utilise LinkedIn to the best of my abilities. The main difficult I found was getting out of the FaceBook mindset when using it. LinkedIn is an altogether different animal and you have to treat it as such.

Maybe your Twitter account is a good reflection of your professionalism. Then posting your tweets on LinkedIn shouldn’t be much of a problem.

But I follow a lot of people on Twitter who use it for casual chatter. Which is fine. But if you take any of those tweets and put it out of context on a LinkedIn profile, well it might look out of place.

Also, when researching this post I read answers to a few questions about using social media for job hunting. There was a lot of disdain for Twitter. (I don’t share those views.) Keep that in mind when looking how your tweets appear on LinkedIn.

Since I wrote this, LinkedIn has rolled out a feature called Signal. Basically it aggregates and filters the tweets of your LinkedIn connections. You can expand the selection to people outside your network then concentrate on tweets from certain companies. It can be another tool to gather intelligence about a company.

It’s also another way for potential employers to see your social media activity outside of LinkedIn. Are you ready for that?

I totally agree with not linking Twitter. Most people use Twitter as a “social” tool. LinkedIn isn’t about being “social” in the same sense. I may want to let me friends that I just saw somebody pick their nose on the subway, I probably don’t want to tell my co-workers and potential new boss that.

I do agree that LinkedIn users are using a professional service that reflects their professionalism but i don’t get the point much why we should not link Twitter into our LinkedIn.

In fact, most of our twits are basically similar/related to our interest in LinkedIn group or discussion that we join. So, it might be helpful.
