In all my years of working I’ve never had a single employer ask me to update my LinkedIn. A job has requested this of you?
Do they both suspect you of being over employed?
As a former recruiter—in a branding effort we have asked hiring managers and interviewers specifically to update Linkedin to help w/ the candidate experience.
As an HR Mgr—can confirm there is no legal obligation and LinkedIn is essentially Facebook for your career aka social media. The smaller company is likely wanting to solidify their social presence and the larger company sounds a bit invasive to even inquire.
Seconding the advice to adjust your privacy settings. If your title/scope of work is similar perhaps settle on one generic title and indicate private for employer just to “clear the air” without pigeon-holing yourself. Kudos to you for the hustle hack & hopefully you nail one job that pays the income of two very soon 🙌🏽
