There is a LinkedIn verification when you first create the account. I thought blind trusts that LinkedIn verified the email. So why does blind still insist on sending an email to my work mail account? Is there a way to avoid it?
The data they’ll be selling your employer is more valuable when reliably linked to your identity

LinkedIn verifies the email? When?
When you add an email to your LinkedIn profile, LinkedIn verifies it by sending you a link to your email. When you connect to blind using LinkedIn, blind gets the verified email from your LinkedIn profile through the LinkedIn API.
@hMEk70 - that was not my experience
That’s what makes it different.
I agree with OP. If you don’t validate using work email, you can’t join in your company lounge nor send a message.
With Fishbowl, you can just use LinkedIn and still join your company bowl
Other than Blind, there are some online applications which requires new users to provide their work email addresses. Examples of which could be found in this article: https://blog.usejournal.com/requesting-work-email-address-to-verify-employment-best-practices-3202118379ca Note that work email address is personal data protected by privacy laws including GDPR. It should be handled with care.
