Has anyone had any luck when applying for jobs via LinkedIn? Just seems full of ghost roles, ghosting by recruiters, etc? Or is it just me?

It’s been successful here and there but definitely not a fool proof way. Smaller local companies have interviewed me from there.

Go to company website and apply from there. Many jobs on LinkedIn are outdated and some do not exist.

Most everything I've applied to on LI links to the company site, and I did hear back from a couple thet were "easy apply." These were rejections, but responses none the leas.

It's hit and miss. It feels like that, though, on all the job sites these days. Indeed, ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and even here on Glassdoor.

HELP! Company wants me to move to the US for a Remote role - Is this reasonable? Hi, I'm moving through the stages for a Remote US role as a Canadian candidate. They mentioned if I were to be offered, expectation is I'd move to the US. I find this odd as the role is Remote but guess it's legal purposes. Good thing is, this comp also has a Canandian office BUT they said bringing me on through the Canadian office is not smth they do.

Is this reasonable?? How can i best negotiate? Thx!

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
