Remember when LinkedIn was the place to get work done?
Welcome to NEW LinkedIn, where professionals go to get distracted
- Because nothing says "professional networking" like knowing that out of my 30K connections, 48 have played Queens in the last hour. Exactly the vital information I needed today. And it's so comforting to know my boss not only sucks at setting my KPIs but also sucks at LUDO (oh wait.. they dont have LUDO, but you get the point). Say Yes to LinkedIn Games : because what better way to showcase your professional skills than competing in virtual board games. Maybe next we’ll have a LinkedIn Queens Champion title to boost your profile visibility and job hunt next?
- AI Post Ideas – Original thoughts? Nah, let the algorithm tell me what to think. Can’t wait for the ‘Inspirational Monday Motivation’ template. Because originality is overrated, right?
- LinkedIn Shorts – because TikTok isn’t enough. Now I can document getting laid off in 30-second clips. ‘Watch me scream at my boss in high definition!’ And the best part? When the boss yells at an employee, we can record that too! Coming soon: "Live from the pantry" and "Breakout room drama" LiEmploymentTV is the new reality TV

9 min AI interview5 questions
LinkedIn is not the same what it was an year ago, these days it's mostly filled with useless crap and so called influencers sharing their fake interview experiences just to sponsor someone who paid good amount of money
So true
Most jobs posted have more than 200 applicants and not one will be reviewed by hr At the end of the day someone has to refer you inside the organisation only then you get a chance to interview.. soo many talented job seekers never get an opportunity to even interview unless you are referred by someone
Where do you source candidates for hiring? Last I checked LinkedIn is the best platform for it
The shots were not for sourcing channel - the shots were on the other gimmicky stuff they are doing. But regardless - there a dime a dozen closed groups which has refined audience for sourcing, truth be told some of my recent hires have come from grapevine :)
You hired anonymous folks or did you get to see their LinkedIn profiles as well 😏
LinkedIn has become trash, just like every other social media platform, including Grapevine.
If an HR is ranting about Linkedin then definitely their fake post on linkedin didn't get enough traffic.
Jokes aside these are some really valid points. And as a GEM(General Engineering Middleclass Male). Linkedin is a place where I will be scammed with fake posts and addition of matchmaking has me cooked beyond repair.
I don’t need traffic to make a point - density / depth of points is what matters. That aside - I did the same take on LinkedIn on LinkedIn and was top ranked - but sure go ahead slobber me with comments - why take that effort when you can take shots freely 😝
