I feel you need to have this discussion with your employer. I would couch it that it’s also beneficial to them, because it will highlight the quality of their work and promote their services.

If you’re doing something that you’re afraid you’re going to get caught for…well, then it’s probably not OK.

There is certainly no rule about posting your experience to LinkedIn, that’s (some of) the purpose of the site.

I actually see this as an opportunity for you, to help bring your construction company into the 21st century and cement your position in the company as an employee who “get it.”

Good luck!

@rich-brooks @trudy Thank you both so much. I’m going to ask them almost like a pit pch that this could be beneficial to the company and would make them look good! I never thought of that!Thanks a lot for the help!

@sgsrecording – I know you want to do a profile for the construction work you have done.  Reading your initial post, I wasn’t sure if the other company was construction as well.

I agree that you can talk to the existing employer.  A LinkedIn profile is your online resume, so you should be able to list anything that relates to you.  The only time I would caution against it is if your current employer does not know that you do this other work.  Then it could work against you.

You can definitely list more than one current job on LinkedIn.  So you could list both positions.  Also, be sure to utilize an app such as Slideshare.  You can then create an online portfolio of your work that would autoplay within LinkedIn.  (If you’re curious about how it works, view my LinkedIn profile and you can look at my Slideshare app.  You can access it from my profile here in the club.)

Let us know how the discussions with your employer work out.
