Brief Summary: Proposal to implement linkedin URL validation for the 'Linkedin Account Name' field on the application form to reduce input errors and ensure data quality.
Field Details:
Field Name: Linkedin Account Name
Current Behavior: Currently accepts any text input without checking for a Linkedin url
Required Validation: The field should validate for at least the domain name 'linkedin.com' to be part of the input
Rationale: Adding URL validation will help prevent user errors during sign-up, and prevent applicants from inputting 'none' in the field
Expected Behavior after Implementation: Upon entering data in the 'Linkedin Account Name' field, the system should immediately check for format validity. If the input does not match the expected format, an error message will be displayed.
Error Message: "Please enter your Linkedin profile URL. For example, linkedin.com/in/your-name"
