It just occurred to me that I haven't updated my LinkedIn profile picture since my senior year of college in 2014. Think that matters? Are potential employers seeing that photo and then meeting me, thinking, is this chick trying to catfish me?

Yes you should definitely update it.

Unless you look remarkably different it probably doesn't matter. I imagine most people post a profile picture and never bother to change it. Potential employers probably don't take that too seriously.

I haven't updated my LinkedIn in years, to be honest. I hate using it, to be honest. I doubt anyone is thinking you are catfishing them.

Twelve years??? Yeah, you need to update that. I'm one of those people that notices when someone's profile picture (LinkedIn, Teams) looks really different.

My picture is me in 1996. I like it and I’m not changing it.

As long as you are ok with bringing to mind Windows 95 with that picture...

Hey folks, hope you’re all having a not-so-blue Monday. I’m new to EY and was wondering if the firm does annual raises? I joined as an SC and wondering if my base salary will be adjusted annually by a fixed % for inflation or a variable % based on performance? Or if the only way to increase my base pay is to get promoted to manager? Thanks for your help!
