There surely is some way for frustrated up-and-comers to advance themselves. But Joseph Teegardin's method is not it. The self-described "Lead Mac Genius," who claims to oversee a team of 85 at Apple, has apparently placed an advertisement on Facebook, pictured here, which clicks through to his LinkedIn profile. Assuming the ad was really placed by Teegardin, not a prankster, it seems foolish. The one move one doesn't make in a job search is alerting your current employer that you're looking for a new gig — and the Teegardin ad has done just that. (Personal to Joseph, if you really are job-hunting, you might want to fix the typo in the URL for your Tumblr listed on LinkedIn.)
