Some feedback<p>(1)<p>&gt; The platform uses an individual’s work email to verify their work experience. For verifying educational credentials, users upload their student badge or ID or use their institute’s assigned email ID to get their profiles verified. The startup has plans to verify users’ past work experiences and education by expanding its verification feature over time.<p>How does this work for those who are not currently employed? Who&#x27;s going to pay for this verification of work history? What about verification beyond &quot;they were here during that time&quot;? Many companies will not go into this detail. What prevents me from falsifying my experience? What if I am a contractor who lists projects and has never had formal employment?<p>Do users want to upload these documents for verification when they don&#x27;t for LinkedIn? I don&#x27;t think I would<p>Is this verification something that is a meaningful differentiation?<p>(2)<p>This is very much focused on developers who create public content, which is a small percentage. What about those that have only contributed to private code bases or don&#x27;t blog? How do they feel about how their profile looks by comparison to those that do? What about all the non-tech people?
