Has anyone gotten a job or at least an interview through LinkedIn this year? I got jobs on there in 2016 and 2019 with no problem, but this year I've applied to tons of jobs and haven't even gotten one interview. My husband is dealing with the same thing. It feels crazy competitive now. Should we just give up on LinkedIn or what?

I've seen other people saying the same thing, that LinkedIn seems to be a lost cause these days. It's odd as I once found a job from a posting there, but that feels like it was in another era. I think maybe there's just so much spam and AI generated stuff there that real engagement just isn't happening like it used to.

A recruiter saw my profile a referred my resume to her client. 2 rounds of interviews later with a panel of 3 individuals each time and I landed a fully 100% remote job. I don’t think this new role would have been possible had I not labeled myself as “Open to Work”. IMO LinkedIn its not necessarily a job repository, hence the “Linked” in its name, but a way for professionals, employers, recruiters, and organizations stay connected.

For those of you who got out at 10, do you wish that you rode it out to 20? I’m at a crossroad and I’m not sure what to do. Have some active/reserve time, wrapping up graduate school, and am now considering either a) come back to the business world or b) go active and retire before 50 and live off a nice pension. Obviously there are draws to both. I’m an officer for what it’s worth so I can realistically retire at O-5, MAYBE O-6.
