questiondude12345: should I connect with someone on Linkedin after they interviewed me for a job?
I just got interviewed for a job, and I found my interviewer on Linkedin. would it be alright for me to request them as a connection to let them know I’m serious, and also to give them a little bit of info about me?

It’s not a bad idea as networking is the name of the game at Linkedin. It is their choice whether to accept your invite or not. I believe in networking! EVERY job I interview with as I am also looking, I go to linked in and see if I know anyone at that company to call and check out the “inside scoop” on the company. It has helped me alot!

Good luck 🙂 Hope you get it!

I advise everyone to know and trust the people they connect to. So – how well do you know the interviewer? Do you trust them?

If yes, by all means ask to connect, if not – don’t.
