I received an SA offer to a bank last summer for this upcoming summer and haven't posted on LinkedIn yet. Do banks think it's fishy or weird if you don't post the usual "incoming SA" thing on LinkedIn? I mean, I know its cringe (according to what i've read on here), but isn't that sort of the norm now? I haven't posted because I was still recruiting but don't know if it's too late to post about it now.

Jesus we've really gone from "never post a LinkedIn update" to basically "will I get fired if I don't post LinkedIn update"
Do whatever you want bro, I promise no one cares
Thank you for your comment! Happy new year.
Bro nobody cares…
Thanks for your comment!
Nobody cares though some of us analysts will think you are a bit of a tool when you reach out and we check out your Linkeldn. I think incoming analyst is defensible bcus of headhunter outreach but incoming SA is more of a tool move.
My (now) MD's LinkedIn said he was a summer associate his whole banking career until like a year after he made MD, so 10+ years. Nobody cares, I aspire to have his level of giving zero fucks.
No, we don’t think about you at all
