Hello everyone,

I'd like to try new things in my career and enter into the LinkedIn atmosphere to start looking for new opportunities, but I'm confused about something: Is it okay to disclose all the agencies you work and have worked with on your LinkedIn profile? Currently, I do consistent work for about three agencies (could there be any issues if they see you're working simultaneously for several agencies?) and historically have worked for about ten. Do you post all your experience on LinkedIn, or is there any reason to keep this information private?

Also, if you have worked for major companies (such as Microsoft, Samsung...) or important titles (like a famous book or video game) within these agencies, is it okay to mention these names?

I think my confusion arises from all the NDAs they make you sign.

I appreciate your insights! ▲ Collapse
