Does the #OpenToWork Frame Help, or Does It Send the Wrong Message?
You may have the relevant experience, significant achievements and the skills required to take on your next role. However, if your way of communicating your openness to new opportunities doesn’t reflect your career stage and circumstances, you may not be making the most of LinkedIn’s potential.
The #OpenToWork feature was introduced by LinkedIn in 2020 to enable users to let others know that they are open to considering new career opportunities. Setting this feature to public adds a green frame to your profile picture, which is visible to other LinkedIn users.
For many job seekers, this may be a useful solution. However, for experienced professionals, managers and executives, it is worth considering whether this is the best way to communicate their professional situation and attract the right opportunities.
