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 think I’m starting to hate “professional”.

    It literally means playing a corporate role, not being genuine, trying to get connections to make your career take off.

    It’s not genuine, or warm, or fun… It’s just corporate shit. What a world.

      Yep, but to me that’s what linkdin is to me. A playground for making oneself as great as possible for recruiters. I get my warmth and fun from other places, while linkdin stays freezing cold.

      I had to scroll through my front page just now to confirm that it’s still that corporate and cold bulletin board. Yep, every single post was either a corporate post about acquiring projects or holding presentations or some non-genuine post of someone quoting how awesome their company is.

      I kinda like that linkdin is just that, and I don’t have to look through it for nice personal interactions, because they don’t exist there.

        Yeah I can see your point. And I smiled at “freezing cold”. I mean, to me it’s more like “people acting” but its always up for subjective interpretation. Also depends on who is in your list of contacts. I have mostly recruiters I don’t know at all.
