Okay, but seriously, is anyone able to generate leads through LinkedIn? Or is LinkedIn advertising a dead end? I've followed all of the guidelines and best practices but it still feels like I'm throwing money away on LinkedIn ads

I love this guy so much. He is my inner unemployed freelancer. Dutifully sitting down to email for jobs daily. Actually thinking, "Today is the day, guys. We can do this." But he is the only one in the room. And by 3 pm he is starting to realize that.

LinkedIn ads have always felt like a black hole for money. Some people swear by them, but for me, organic networking and direct outreach have worked way better. Have you tried engaging with posts in your industry or messaging leads directly? Ads alone don’t seem to move the needle much.

I am with everyone above who said they haven't been impressed by the results. I honestly have never been impressed either and always kind fo felt like it was a waste of money. I just don't think that Linked in is what it used to be.

I feel left out in my firm. How do I make 'friends' with my colleagues? I've been here for a year. I am naturally not a very out going person, was never 'cool' and I struggle to speak in group situations / make engaging conversation with higher ups. It is an important trait to have in this job and I just don't know how to do this. It makes me very upset - I even sought therapy but wasn't useful. I can't spend 14 hours each day feeling like this:(

Hi Fishes,

I got an offer from PwC. The joining date that I had agreed from my side was 2 June. But I don't know that even in probation the NP is 90 days (it was mentioned in the release doc as 1 month but I didn't take that screenshot as proof). I told the whole issue to my recruiter and she sent a confirmation mail stating that she will revise my joining date by 90 days without issue. Is there any chance they can revoke the offer? I have put down my papers already.
