She is thinking about updating her LinkedIn profile and seeing if there are better opportunities out there. What is the BEST advice for Twyla?
Answer

D
She should update her profile and let those she is close to in her network know that she is potentially interested in new opportunities
Explanation
Twyla can explore new opportunities while keeping her current job. Updating her LinkedIn profile and telling trusted contacts she may be interested in a new role helps her learn about openings and build connections without making a rash decision. Quitting first or threatening her supervisor could create unnecessary risk, and avoiding a profile update out of fear may limit her options. The best advice is to update her profile and discreetly inform people in her network.
