Make Your Job Search Activity on LinkedIn Private

LinkedIn is a social network for professionals, and many use it to search for their next job.

You may want to hide your job search activity, though, if you are currently in a job and don't want your current employer to know that you're looking elsewhere.

Thankfully, LinkedIn allows you to hide your activities related to the job search easily by following a few simple steps:

    ■Log on to your PC.
    ■Go to the LinkedIn website by typing www.linkedin.com in the address bar and pressing Enter.
    ■Provide your email address and password in the Email address and Password fields respectively and click Sign In.
