Which company to mention in LinkedIn or resume: Actual Employer or the Client
5 answers
I was hired by company X months ago as a full time developer but have been working onsite as a contractor at one of company X's clients, company Y. I might be somewhat bias but since company Y is more renowned and respectable in the industry, I am wondering if I should leave company X in the dark?
Although I am working as a contractor at Y, I have never visited X (company is out of country) and it was one of Y's managers who did the initial interview with me. I checked other developers who are also from X and some of them put X on their profile, some of which put Y, some even put both. Which makes me wonder if its okay to not bring up X and only mention company Y in my resume / linkedin / interviews unless they ask?

Unless there is some sort of confidentiality agreement, I'd put the better known one or both. January 2013-Present: Company X Supported Company Y on-site, doing A, B, and C.

I actually err on the side of listing whomever I'm legally an employee of and "working at". So it could be...
Software Development Engineer - Company X at Company Y
Maybe I'm a minority but I might find it dishonest to list "Company Y" as your employer if you are legally employed by someone else and working there on site.

Not to mention that it's incredibly easy to check. I wouldn't want to have to explain to my employer why I said I was employed by Company Y when Company Y says I wasn't an employee and they have no record of me working for them.
