Should I tell my interviewer that I looked at their LinkedIn?
Yes it is ethical. Furthermore, I think the interviewer would prefer that candidates view his or her profile on LinkedIn or any other public site. The more that a candidate knows about the background of the interviewer, the more responsive the candidate can be to the interviewer’s questions.
How would you know if you did good in an interview?
As you answered their questions and spoke about yourself, did you feel like the interviewer was interested? Consider their body language and their responses. If they leant in, nodded, smiled and agreed with what you had to say, then chances are the interviewer was engaged with what you were saying.
Can you search your interviewer on LinkedIn?
So, yes, it is completely acceptable to look at your interviewer’s LinkedIn profile and do a Google search, and if they see that you searched, it will only be a positive for you.
Can someone see if you looked them up on LinkedIn?
People will still see that someone viewed their profile after you view their profile—but they’ll see only that an anonymous person viewed it. As LinkedIn warns you on this settings page, there’s just one downside: When you become anonymous to other people, they become anonymous to you.
Yes it is ethical. Furthermore, I think the interviewer would prefer that candidates view his or her profile on LinkedIn or any other public site. The more that a candidate knows about the background of the interviewer, the more responsive the candidate can be to the interviewer’s questions.
Should I look at an interviewer’s LinkedIn before an interview?
In fact, I would suggest that looking at an interviewer’s LinkedIn is a necessity before an interview to understand more about who you are speaking with. In addition to this, the interviewer might see that you have been looking at them on the ‘who’s viewed your profile’ section of their profile.
Do employers look you up on LinkedIn?
Unless they are trapped in a total time warp, every employer is going to look you up on LinkedIn. Before you interview with them, make certain that your LinkedIn profile is updated and relevant for the role you’re working on.
Is it okay to look at the interviewer’s Li profile?
All the best at your interview! There is absolutely nothing wrong with looking at the interviewer’s LI profile to learn more about that person. It’s part of doing your homework, meaning preparing for your upcoming interview. So no, we do not have any ethical issues involved with this.
