Sacked for posting cv on Linkedin!

What do you make of this? I was just about to post my cv as well lol.

He's got a solid case against his ex-employers, that's for sure.

Less Daily Mail-flavoured link - www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/social-media/8992541/Executive-forced-out-of-job-over-LinkedIn-CV.html (I mean it's still Telegraph but at least it's not giving clicks to the Mail)

Well that's going to be an interesting hearing. Depends what the company policy and his employment contract said re social media. Certainly he shouldn't have defamed the company but equally they can't unreasonably restrict his right to work (including finding new work). Sounds like he was a bit naive with the extent of the info he uploaded too.

This will be an interesting case to follow.

How did he : "defamed the company"?

If you post that you reduced costs by £x million, do you see that as negative? Whereas, increased sales by £x million, positive?

He posted his achievements?
