What? May 15

What is LinedIn?? A new platform? Or just a careless misspelling? Completely unprofessional by the asker and the platform as well who allowed this question! Shame on both!

The official title of an official poll May 15

So, this is the official title of an official ProZ.com poll: "Have you ever found a job via LinedIn?" I mean, I do feel sorry for the person with the thankless job of approving suggested polls (probably a volunteer who doesn't get paid for it), but this is perhaps something for them to take special care with.

LinkedIn? May 15

Good day to all,
if you meant LinkedIn, I happened to find clients or projects, not jobs, being a freelancer.

No, but May 15

The same question (with the proper spelling) has been asked in several different ways on this space over the years, so copy and paste would have been enough…

Not via LinedIn, but by LinkedIn.

That's ProZ for you.

But they'll play it down and pretend.

To answer the intended question May 17

I do believe a colleague of mine once messaged me via LinkedIn to refer a client of hers to me. So this isn't a "job via LinkedIn" per se but rather the colleague choosing to use LinkedIn messenger as the mode of communication, since they didn't have my phone number.
