LinkedIn is a performative circus. Real connections happen in smaller, unfiltered spaces. Ditch the fake humblebrags and go where the real conversations are.
Totally agree about LinkedIn. It’s superficial and something about it feels disingenuous.
Can you share some of the subreddits you recommend?
LinkedIn has too many useless posts, promos, and scams these days, but it’s good to keep your profile up to date. More exposure is always good.
The only networking which I've ever found to be really valuable happened in person. If you meet someone through work, or at some industry function, and you establish a rapport, that's worth a thousand inane connections on LinkedIn. Most online networking is just weird log rolling and it doesn't amount to much in any real way.
I am applying for summer internship at goldman sachs, bengaluru. I have just completed 3 months of intenship. I have done BBA from government college( waiting for last semester exam) but passed CFA level 1 exam and currently level 2 candidate. I am focusing on skills like excel and power bi. What exactly it takes to get the internship?
Different platforms have different vibes. I’ve joined some groups on FB, Reddit, and Discord, and it’s great for more down-to-earth conversations. People still brag and use theatrics, but less than some of the other sites.
This is really good to know because I find Linked in to be completely useless. I have several friends who think it is the most amazing app ever and I don't agree. I have never gotten a job opportunity through Linked in.
I use LinkedIn primarily to keep up with coworkers and people I’ve met in person rarely do I connect with people or leads on there maybe the rare “congrats” notification
