It's a rough job market. And some folks have been looking for a year or more. I try to help where I can. If that means a flooded inbox, I can live with that.
I don't know. Maybe it's a karma thing but I'd appreciate the help if I needed it.

👆 This is the way.
Are you complaining? This is the exact advice people with titles like you i've seen give to people that are struggling to find a job. "Request the hiring manager on linkedin! make connections! ask to take them out to coffee!"
I get that being inundated with messages is annoying, but like, what did you think was going to happen…? Why post about your company hiring if you don’t want to be contacted by potential candidates lol

Clearly they post so they look like a company team player. 🤦♂️
So why did you post it?
Chief
To look like a leader and team player.
Then just delete the post or job listing??
I’ll look at you when you get laid off and start banging on all doors after it turns out that the companies you have connections at aren’t hiring or simply don’t want you
Simple answer is don't post it the next time. Also keep in mind that you can be in their shoes as well at any given point.
You just have to keep a perspective.
Yeah. We should just keep dumping our resumés out into the void.
