    Ah yes because a platform that is having an exodus of advertisers due to not wanting to be associated with its content will surely attract companies for employment related listings…

    It’s pretty much a joke site now. Nobody takes it seriously - not even the owner.

    Employer - “Hey where’s you resume?“

    Potential employee - Oh, it’s on X.“

    Employer - “🤣🤣🤣 - no seriously…”

    LinkedIn doesn’t need help to become even more shitty, but it can surely always be worse…

      LinkedIn basically needed to have an all or nothing presence in the white color workspace for the concept to work. They got close before everyone realize how useless it is, and now it’s a complete joke. It’s at the point where if someone mentions spending time on LinkedIn they get weird looks if they don’t work in HR.

    With the toxicity around Twitter and the absolute shit show it’s been, I’d be shocked if companies and recruiters utilize it over Glassdoor, LinkedIn, Monster, or Indeed.

    I certainly wouldn’t be looking for real jobs there.
