My feed is filled with dumb “advices”, so called “professionals” that post the most entry level stuff and all sorts of shit that if I were a recruiter I would stay away from these people

I never really used it because even when I first heard about it when it was still newish, it was just Facebook but everyone wore a suit and talked about work related shit.
I initially tried it because I was told it was a great job seeking app like Monster. It wasn’t tho. It was Facebook bullshit with a different name and overall mindset.
I think that depends on what profession you’re in. I get contacted on the regular by recruiters on that platform for jobs. It’s where I have found my last 2 positions in 7 years.
Likewise. It has generated several offers for me, but the vast majority of head hunters are playing spray-n-pray with keywords. For every good lead I get, I have to tell 400 people to fuck off.
Oh… you’re a SOX analyst? Want to work in a sock factory? Want to do the laundry for a minor league baseball team? Want to be in a fetish video?
Head hunters are so annoying I’ve stopped responding to them. They barely know anything about the position they try to fill.
Depends. I got my recent job from a headhunter: a Rust programming gig in a fully remote startup with good benefits and a great salary. When the offers are not great, I tell them. This was through LinkedIn.
Yep. I live in one of the “post salary or GTFO” states, and lead with that. Anyone who can’t respond with a straight answer isn’t worth dealing with and is told why.
I go through them every couple of days and have a text file with canned responses.
And what field is this? Or what professions do you think so well here?
Product development. Anything associated with building software products get a lot of traction on LinkedIn
I’ve found my last 3 jobs on there. It depends on your role and area, but I much prefer it to classic trash ad sites.
