Mentor/Mentee LinkedIn Recommendations

I think it would be helpful to encourage a mentee to consider submitting their reviews of us as mentors on our LinkedIn profiles as a "recommendation" as well. These reviews provide context that future employers would also find enlightening. Right now - this info is siloed exclusively on ADPList.
This could be solved by asking mentee's manually to do this - but perhaps there's a feature/integrated way to achieve this.
Possibly a way to direct them to a link like this after they submit their review & encourage them to copy & paste their review in there -
LinkedIn would need to add a new option for "I was mentored by" vs. the current "I mentored this person". I've submitted that request to their team for consideration.

Potential solution could be improving the visual snapshot that folks get when receiving a new review (PNG attached to the email). If that's given a sparklier treatment, similar to the achievements, then folks could upload that as media to the a ADP position 🤷♂️
It's not the cleanest. At this point I recognise the silo, but also recognise Linkedin as being more "actual folks I've worked with", rather than folks who have mentored or been mentored by me.

This would be valuable indeed
