I've noticed most if not all of those who find it useful are not in the creative dept. Wondering if that plays into it at all?

The trial version I had didn't wow me with anything more than an ever-so-slightly better look at who viewed my profile.

I pay the cheap $5/mo version to browse/research in private while still seeing who looks at my page. Also, having access to inmails has been useful for getting at 3rd connection recruiters

It's okay. All it really does is shows you who looked at your profile and provide estimated metrics around how your skill set compares to the job description and other people who've applied. If you still have the 30 day free trial, then won't hurt to turn it on, but I don't personally think it's worth paying for as a job seeker.

I have, it’s super helpful - job insights, priority application, you can use inmail, you know when recruiters view your profile. Many more! Definitely worth it

I have a phone screen interview with AWS for the position of Systems Engineer with the Linux team early next week.

I’m not sure if I can let the interviewer know I’m not too strong with coding. I do want to take up the challenge, and also find out if the role would require extensive coding though. Any tips?

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)
