I am sorry to say it too but if you are applying for jobs on there maybe stick to Simon until you get a face to face 😕 I have had the unfortunate experience of having to advertise jobs on there and there a known issue/scam/shitfulnes that you get a massive influx of applications (almost immediately) and they are random people from all over the world (many are likely using bots). So a name like Simon from Melbourne actually stands out as non bot-trash.
It sucks. I actually think linked in encourages it because it’s free to advertise a job until the first 50 applicants then they pause it and want you to pay per job view (like 150 bucks a day).
Sorry I have been recruiting for my team so I am scarred the opposite way to you right now.
I had to make a LinkedIn. I just scrolled my feed for about 30 seconds. These people are fucked up lol
A shrine to the cult of the corporation.
LinkedIn is just Facebook for businesses.
It’s the average workers that post delusional nonsense im talking about.

Totally get it. It’s part of the reason I switched to Simon in the first place.
Sucks, but it is what it is.
