Curious from users not affiliated with LinkedIn. Would purchasing LinkedIn Premium be worth it for a job seeker?

How does Premium increase my chances of landing my targeted role vs. original LI platform?

Need benefits before I make the purchase

I was informed it wasn't worth it

It does help in learning new skills and getting access to Inmails but I have noticed that not a lot of people are replying to messages. So I guess not worth it.

LI is pivoting to expanding more Premium features to free profile features (like rolling out the newsletter feature to eventually give access to all users). However, if you want recruiters to know you’re open to work, without the potential for your boss or company knowing you’re looking, then Premium should be a consideration, at least for now.
