The weird thing about LinkedIn is that it’s dependence for jobs is reducing (I can’t remember the last time an employer asked for LinkedIn) but it’s needed in the most unexpected scenarios. Recently a bank asked for my LinkedIn to open a company account. When I offered to send in a CV as I don’t have my employment history on LinkedIn, they stopped replying.

Employers do that? I've never once had an employer or potential employer ask me for my LinkedIn account.

I had never head of that. Did they want your company's LinkedIn page? Or your own?
