I can't remember the last time I checked LinkedIn. Maybe it's just me but somewhere along the way it stopped feeling like a professional network and started feeling like another social media platform 😭 The inspirational stories that sound made up. The humble brags. The scam jobs. The "I hired someone because they held the door open" posts. But sometimes I scroll and wonder what's real and what's content. Am I the only one feeling LinkedIn fatigue?

For me, the problem is the rapid algorithm changes. By which I mean, if I click on something about AI, then my feed switches to those posts. If I click on something about healthcare, then those appear right away. I have many interests and prefer my feed to reflect all of them, not just the one I clicked on last. It's getting so I don't want to click on anything and just read the first 3 lines of a post before the "see more" part! lol

I know that I am one that could never see the appeal of linkedin. It just looks like a professional facebook to me. Also I have yet to see a person hired like on the commercials when they mention they need a job.

I’ve heard salaries have gone up quite a bit in the midst of the pandemic and I’m wondering if this is true for EAs as well. There’s a myriad of data online about EA salaries depending on age/experience but I’m interested in salaries from jobs accepted in 2020/2021 specifically!

Please feel free to share:

- Your salary from any job accepted in 2020/2021
- Any offers you may have received but rejected
- Your length of experience

Thank you!

What is revenge Job Hopping?

It is a phenomenon observed when a candidate frequently jumps job in order to have a market correction to his salary.
Say person A got settled in his job for 5 years and his current salary is 7lpa..He joined at 4 lpa.
Now for his experience, he can be paid upto 30 lpa for the role.
So after switching for 13 lpa.. He keeps job hopping from 13-19 and 19-28 within a year where he finally feels he is paid adequately.

How do you keep up/in touch with your network? Mine barely post anything on LinkedIn, so commenting on their posts is out of the question, and apparently it's impolite to just message or email them if the job searcher doesn't have anything to share besides asking for a referral or opening. If I don't have any relevant information to share with them, what should I do?
