Has anyone else recently been getting more recruiters dm-ing them on LinkedIn ?

Side note-I acknowledge that people are looking for jobs and if anyone is looking for a sr media planner role I’d be more than happy to try to make a connection.

You’re not alone. I’ve definitely been getting more recruiters DM’ing me on LinkedIn. Before I’d just politely decline or ignore, but now I’m listening.

Are you asking this to gauge if hiring is picking up? Or because you think it’s abnormal?

It’s abnormal (for me)

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
