    I am employed by a game studio but i also work on side projects on my spare time.
    How should this be reflected on my Connect profile ?

    For example, should i post games that are owned by the company i work for under my profile? or only my personal projects?

    Do you maintain multiple profiles (one for personal and one for studio work) ?

    I would personally have one profile, of course making sure the company that I was employed at does not mind about side projects.

    It would be like having two linked in, or two facebook profiles, unless you are cheatin on ya significant other ;)

    Hey liortal,

    Good questions. We agree with KarIN, if possible try to maintain a single profile. Please make sure you get permission, if needed, to post IP that doesn't belong to you.

    If you'd like to showoff the work you've done at the company and they want to maintain 'owner' status of the content on Connect, you can always post the content on the company's profile and then add contributor status & roles for people.

    Thanks!
