LinkedIn Premium Job Reference Class Action Investigation

Investigating a class-action lawsuit against LinkedIn on behalf of individuals who are premium subscribers.  It is alleged that LinkedIn violated federal consumer protection laws by selling users' employment history to potential employers without their consent.  LinkedIn's job reference tool can generate reference reports that include the names, locations, and employment history of people who have worked with a given job seeker. The information in these reference reports could potentially be inaccurate.  Applicants are not told when a potential employer checks a reference report.  The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires parties to let a person know when a consumer report is used to deny his or her application for employment, insurance, or credit.  Consumer consent is required to provide such reports to potential employers.  If you are a LinkedIn premium subscriber who has recently be turned down for an employment opportunity or promotion, please contact us.
