Do people use LinkedIn recommendations? Is it a thing again? I remember asking and receiving them a long time ago. I came across a few LinkedIn profiles with updated recommendations. My last one is from 2014.

Doesn’t hurt

Not always, but there was 1 candidate that had a referral from someone that meant a lot to us, so doesn’t hurt! I would aim for less, but more senior individuals/old bosses or mentors.

I would surely keep them updated.

It's a thing. If no one will vouch for you and your work, it looks sus.

I’m just about 100% sure they make no difference whatsoever

Is it any surprise we’re seeing mass layoff in tech? Years of rich friends hiring rich friends with no work ethic has lead us here. I know way too many tech people who work maybe an hour a day followed by errands and traveling. A lot of getting in these places is who you know, apparently that doesn’t work out like it used to. The amount of people who worked for Meta, Apple, Amazon, etc for a few months / maybe a year is astounding. it’s around that time frame a boss can tell if you’re worth it

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
