Does anyone actually get any value from LinkedIn posts? Other than things regarding openings or positions, does anyone actually care or look forward to the content there? I feel like a LinkedIn creator is akin to a pet rock or NFT

There are many good technical articles or links shared by experts but lot of cringe from the head hunters and recruiters , I start unfollowing them,
Also I tend to reject or not accept recruiter invites to keep my li feed meaningful and clean

I love seeing people post their work. It’s inspiring and sometimes jealousy-inducing.
And for my coworkers and teammates, past and present, I love cheering their successes on.

Yep. There are a lot of great articles, white papers, and newsletters that interest me. Not so much the career updates as those get old really fast.

Leverage on others road map to a successful attainment in their career. See what career path they took and how they got to where they are presently. Especially if they are currently excelling at what you want to become. If you are lucky, you will get a mentor, coach or even a referral. You have to be very strategic in using LinkedIn.
I’ve been lucky doing this and it worked for me.

I have seen some really good technical stuff on there . Esp. A few of the Sys Designers and architects I follow.
I see a lot of junk as well which actually would be tiktok or fb material , I just start unfollowing those connections .
But yes lots of helpful info in a click

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Able to post something so absurdly wrong (Google PMs in the comments explaining that she transferred ladders when she switched jobs internally, hence pay change)

Able to become a product manager at Google and STILL not comprehend how misleading the race aggregation stat is “Black women make 58 cents to every $1 a white man makes!” not taking into account job choice and individual opportunity.
