Serious question. People who make posts that say “I’m available” on LinkedIn…does that actually work for you?

It usually gets me at least one or two people reaching out. I don't like to just post "I'm available" though...that's lazy and boring. I try to include a new piece of work, or an updated reel, or something that's worth looking at.

It’s worked pretty well for me when I’ve freelanced. You have to have a well maintained network though. It only just puts you top of mind. So if the people who see your post don’t know you or your work, you’re probably not going to get any bites.

Eh. Doesn’t feel like it during the time it’s quiet. ;)

Do you feel your position is in jeopardy, OP?

Whelp, I’m not working, so nope. Fishbowl ain’t exactly swift on the profile updates.

Hey everyone, I got a call from Deloitte recruiting on Wednesday of last week discussing salary requirements and location.

I haven’t heard much since then. Should I be worried? How much longer will I have to wait?
