Stay in the shadows while you look around

LinkedIn can be a great help for anyone looking to network and advance their career. But like any other job search tool, you have to be smart about your job search.

LinkedIn lets you see who is searching for you online and you can search for people yourself. While some people prefer transparency when it comes to browsing their potential employers or employees, LinkedIn also gives you the option to do so anonymously.

If you’re feeling a little shy, you can hide in the shadows with LinkedIn Private mode. Here’s how to enable and use LinkedIn Private mode to leave absolutely no trace.
