“The Justice Department is spending more than $500,000 to ‘enhance’ its company profile on LinkedIn and increase its ‘brand awareness.’ The contract, awarded on Christmas Eve, gives the government ‘unlimited access’ to each of the networking site’s 250 million users through LinkedIn’s ‘Recruiter’ service. The DOJ’s Criminal Division, which enforces federal criminal laws, will use LinkedIn Recruiter to post job advertisements and seek out potential employees. Carahsoft Technology Corporation, a government IT company, will receive $544,338 to administer the service, according to the award.”
