This seems like a bad idea. Aren't you concerned this will lower the quality and accuracy of submissions? I know when some website forces me to put in details I don't think it needs I put in garbage.
Also you're asking people to submit data when they have no idea what data you already have. Are they first to submit?
This reminds me of Auto generated pages with no content or no answer yet that's not clear from a Google SERP. You get the "helpful" message like "be the first to post X". I actually wish Google would downrank questions with no answers and empty wiki pages.
It smacks of clickbait is what I'm getting at. If you measure it you'll probably find your bounce rate is really high.
Yes, we don’t have too much data yet. All the data is crowdsourced.
I validate the information (current job title, company name and location) via user’s LinkedIn profile manually.
I don’t validate the "numbers", but I plan to implement an algorithm that’ll mark "suspicious" entries, and will hide them or delete them from the system. Additionally, owners of such records will be prompted to update them when they log in into the system next time.
