How soon would you announce a new job on SM?

Why do you have to announce it?

No one cares. Anybody that should know, you would most likely reach out to directly. You aren't obligated to post anything on SM.

First day of the new job update your LinkedIn. But don’t announce on any other social media.

I think I announced my first job out of college and that was it. Maybe when I changed departments a couple of years in. I find it weird when anyone outside their 20s makes these kinds of announcements.

Never. I don’t put personal information like that on social media.

Attention and validation....duh. She needs to get all those likes and comments from people she hasn't spoken to in years so they can see how amazing her life is!

As an observer, I find that truly important people take a long time to get around to making an announcement.

People who change jobs internally at my F500 do it pretty fast.

Other people who left to pursue outside employment are a mixed bag. I usually get news from other people before the LinkedIn changes.

Do you mean LinkedIn?

I'm not gonna announce my new position when I start on LinkedIn, just gonna change my info quietly after about a week lol.

But if I was gonna announce on LinkedIn, maybe wait like 2-4 weeks after starting to make sure everything is okay.

If/when I get a job, I plan on deleting my LinkedIn forever. No announcement will be made.
