Here, anyone want an endorsement on LinkedIn?

I have a paypal account...all you have to do is...

(yes, that was a joke...) I do agree with Kevin, however. I think
the endorsements on LinkedIn will be good, but will carry about as
much weight as a Wikipedia Ref.

My gut feeling (completely unscientific, of course) is that having
LinkedIn endorsements is a good thing, but not a replacement for a
hiring manager talking to a reference directly. Good endorsements may
help you get onto a short list, but I doubt they would land you a job
all by themselves.
