Which areas would you like to see developed first. I think encryption for profiles would be a good idea.

That includes someoneโ€™s details and resume.

Isn't the point of Linkedin to have that public?

[โ€“] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Selectively public. Resumes can include real names, addresses, phone numbers, projects you are in charge or involved in, current employers and position. In other words a treasure trove for social engineering.

That information I'd only include in an application or upon request, surely

Linkden also handles application and job postings

[โ€“] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Couldn't an employer just link that to their site?

[โ€“] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Honestly I prefer a common platform for resumes over repeatably applying over and over

I don't think ActivityPub is the correct answer to that. Likely a specific file format for curriculum vitaed

I do agree. I feel like youd need attributes for links to an oracle that actually holds that private data and proof of ID to get some data from said oracle. That could be part of the AP actor data for the professional social media sphere, but I also dont see AP it's self being part of the meet and potatoes of a job application processing site
