Does it mostly mean that anyone can be a community manager as long as they have a massive following on social media? Some job ads make me roll my eyes.

It shouldn't be a big factor because who knows, maybe most of their "followers" are just bots or dummy accounts lol

What? Of course not. Being a CM takes more than just having a massive following.

Yes, most of the time. But you also have to know that community managers like them do not have a good foundation to survive.

I'd roll my eyes as well. It's not that simple. You need to have a set of fundamental skills.

Nah. Don't take it seriously. They want to make it appear as if our job is THAT easy. Lol

Well, it is a factor. That's given. But to say that that's all it takes for you to be a CM? No, definitely not. Haha
