So I was just offered employment in Southwest Airlines and have accepted it. I am currently unemployed but will like to make the announcement on my LinkedIn page, when is it a good time to make this post? Should I wait or just post it now?

Once the background check clears, I’d say go for it. Is there anything you’d be worried about?

Oh, that’s pretty soon. Nothing wrong with posting it. Something about accepting an offer or being excited to join the team next month sounds perfectly fine then.

You also don't have to make a post just FYI. You can just update your profile and you'll have the post set up to be able to get comments and likes from other people

I feel like everyone does it as soon as they get the offer. However, I personally wait until my first day. Its really up to you.
