Social media that doesn't provide me with a modicum of anonymity and privacy just isn't for me. You'd think that would count for something when you're in a tech position.

FYI, it takes time to delete yourself from LinkedIn. I think it took a month? Not sure anyone needs to know about this.

You're going to pay that person's salary... Why would you want them giving their 'work' away for free on a platform you don't own?

Only fucking sycophants and frauds give a rats ass about linked it. It's the business equivalent of myspace

Once upon a time I had a LinkedIn account and they were constantly lighting up my email inbox. I sent an email that just said stop fucking emailing me.

Received the message approximately 5 minutes later that my account had been deleted. Mission accomplished I guess?

She's right in that posting gives candidates an edge. LinkedIn ups your visibility if you post once or twice a week. Fucking hate making up some stupid shit just to keep my resume more available.

If a company is hiring engineers based off LinkedIn posts, that's not a company I'd be willing to work for.

Make the AI post to linkedin, two birds one stone.

Candix fit in both of your hands while you type this corpogratuity post?

Depends: side by side, or tip-to-tip?

I got tired of the spam and deleted my LinkedIn account last month
