I asked ChatGPT to write me a LinkedIn post equating the Canadian forest fires to job searching. See comments for the full post.

How long until we actually see someone do the same on LI?

Saw someone posting an ad with “yes, there is still fun work being made in this industry”.

It was their own ad.

And I always thought the best creatives are humble. 😂

The “recruiters getting a taste of their own medicine and then posting about it” is my new fave genre of LinkedIn cringe.

Personally, this is cringey: if my Mom ever posts on one of my LI posts, Imma quit LI.

For others, maybe cute. Thoughts?

You can’t even make up how terrible recruiters are today. This person reached out asking if I was interested, I responded with yes….this was the next message. Never spoke, never interviewed, nada…how do they know I don’t align if I didn’t even get a chance to say two words? What a mess this job market is.

As the original cringe is too extensive to be captured in a single screenshot, please do go look up the original. There's a fine line between being a supportive partner and just bitching that their work isn't good enough - or is that just me?

So this random undergrad (his comments in the chat are the ones with the pronouns and his name hidden by a brown marker) reached out to me for help with the Microsoft interview process on LinkedIn, and tells me to go look at his profile when I asked him about his work experience 🤦‍♂️
Funny part is he isn’t even from the Ivy League or a top engineering school so where this arrogance comes from baffles me
