I am curious, why are TikTok-like videos in the Glassdoor feed? Many of them seem like lifestyle videos, rather than anything useful for job hunters. These videos seem to be often from very young and inexperienced people, or any random topic that has no value to a professional. I understand some people are super confident and want to do something. But in this case this seems just noise. It seems like a clear example of Dunning–Kruger effect. People are super confident on what they don’t know.

It feels like the natural evolution of every social media platform. Twitter used to be text only, IG image only, FB image/text only. Video is more compelling in theory, so it eventually gets added as a posting option as platforms grow. I'm a dinosaur and prefer reading over watching, so it doesn't resonate with me, but I recognize that makes me an outlier in 2025.

Oh, thank you. I didn’t know this. Well, I suppose I’m in the dinosaur age too, because I refer texting and typing rather than videos. I don’t do facebook, instagram, MySpace, TikTok (which they should have completely banned after all the ruckus, gosh what a mess that platform, I heard has caused). I don’t feel the need to use it. I still like using the USPS (even though stamps are overpriced), I still like email, I still like phone calls, texting, typing, and in person conversations.

Gen Z is completely Tok’d
