Assume they are 15 years old, or that they act like they are 15 years old

I used shredder as a metaphor. It’s a PDF.

Roll my eyes, probably show it to a colleague and chuckle, but it wouldn't be a major factor in my decision

It's more commonly #OpenToWork, but it's ubiquitous. It's a LinkedIn pic border

Never heard that before. I thought it meant they were a go-getter, hard worker.

Depends on what the rest of the resume looks like.

I use it as one data point in a long list of data points. Little weighting.

LinkedIn has propagated this as it’s a default option on your profile pic.
