Since most LinkedIn job listings are garbage, what if we started flooding them with garbage responses?

The only people who could do something about it are the programmers at LinkedIn. They could show stats directly under the job posting: how long a job has been posted on the market. How many have applied (exactly, not just more than 100+). How many have had interviews from the application process via LinkedIn. What stage of the process they’re in (are they down to 5, 3, 2 candidates, etc…) LinkedIn is powerful/big enough that they could command all of this to better people’s experiences.

But they won’t. But if they did, it could become a truly amazing resources that was regulated and worked.

We should start reporting those jobs each time we see them.

I agree they should let you list a reason! I am reporting roles as job closed or wrong location depending, but it is insane that linkedin keeps letting them post the role anyways.

I dont feel bad because the companies dont care to waste the candidates time and energy.

I thinks it’s best if people stop applying altogether. Doesn’t work. Better to network.

If you reply to job seekers like garbage, you're garbage too. True gold will always shine.

You have to look for gold and dig through shit to find it. They’d rather hire someone they already know.

Just to see if anybody’s really looking at these things, I list under languages that I speak Pug fluently and that I am the Time magazine person of the year in 2006 .
