10 days agoTrue, but to even insinuate that it is a requirement to get gainful employment, which you seem to have done, is false.
It sucks that Microsoft is turning the platform worse by the month, and that some employers fish in that pond, but it is not by any means the only way to get a great job.
Some people have the luxury of favorable job prospects, and they can be more discerning about what they put themselves through to get in front of potential employers. That isn’t something they’re doing wrong or deserve admonishment for.
I dont think its at all feasible to confirm or deny that claim. I currently have the best job I’ve ever had and I did not use LinkedIn. Could I have gotten a better one if I had used it? Impossible to say.
Also, anyone that accepts a job from somewhere other than LinkedIn, even if they are also using it, isn’t taking a worse offer; they just got the best one from somewhere else.
