Not your typical LinkedIn cringe, but I found the title of this job posting amusing, and then I clicked on it and also read “This position is responsible for Service Sales and Marketing, Spares Supply Chain management, Field Operations, Engineering, Product Training, and Technical Support.”

Not the LI posts but ads like these are cringe. Will a program like this $23k and will you become CTO afterwards? Will you attend the program like this or list it in your education section?
