The thing that really amazes me about LinkedIn...
... is how many people LIE on their profiles!
Holy shit. I can understand fudging resumes to suit a job you're applying for- I'm not a stuffy prick bastard, I have been known to write a flowery letter of reference for a former employee or two- but within reason. I would never reccomend someone for a job I felt they were unqualified for or endorse them for a position they never held. Some of this shit is just fucking amazing. Like a front desk girl lists herself as an Online Marketing and Advertising Professional and claims she oversaw an entire affilaite network. Say what?!  If you lie on a printed resume you've got a better shot at getting away with it, but just bullshitting on a public website? Prospective employers may not know but anyone who you've worked with or worked for that comes across it is just going to think you're a douchebag. Hey, maybe it will help get you the job, but good luck keeping it.

Sometimes some of the true things I did nobody would believe, so I don't bother telling them.

Another note, people who are on LinkedIn can be found in Google search results for their first and last name.

They key is consistency. I imagine people are using linkedin to "validate" paper resumes knowing that many prospective employers WILL google potential employees to see what additional information can be obtained.
Not unsimilar to when George gave Jerry's telephone number as his previous employer at an interview on Seinfeld many years ago.

I have a linked in profile - it says very little. People that know me complained I was not on there so I made a profile so they'd quit bitching. Now they bitch at me for not answering their linked in mail! To which I reply, "You have my number, call me!" And there answer is, "You never answer your phone either!" LOL! :P

In the past when I have had to enter the job market I found my experience / resume to be a double edged sword. I never put salary info out there but I got alot of feedback that they wouldn't be able to make me an offer to meet my pay grade or that they felt I was over qualified because I've held exec level roles. For these individuals, middle management and below, I think fluffing up their career with titles they never held such as Director, VP or General Manager is hurting their chances at landing a job they are truly qualified for. If they do get in the door, chances are they are going to fall on their face in the interview, or if by chance they do get past the interview process and taken on board god bless them. The economy is turning around but companies are still trying to run lean. Unless I had a leadership vacuum I would be much more apt to take someone who has a solid work history in middle management and seems eager to earn a title.
