If a post has a pic of the poster with a good background, then regardless of the content it's a shillfluencer and you should block

Its whole new chutiapa. But LinkedIn algo works in that way that if image being uploaded, the reach increases somehow.

That became popular after one person who was cute/handsome went viral. After, that people assumed they’ll go viral if they did that too.

Why people who are smart enough to crack FAANG/MAANG posting photos and selfies in their INTERVIEW EXPERIENCE?? I mean how did anyone even cane up with that idea, like “you wanna know my interview ...

Why is everyone posting selfies on LinkedIn?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Have you noticed the trend by upcoming VCs trying to be thought leaders where a snippet of their 'interview' is posted with graphics where they are giving some startup gyaan on Linkedin. From what I hear, they are speaking to themselves and passing it off as an interview. The constant bombardment is really annoying after a while. Who all have you seen do it?

I have been scrolling LinkedIn a lot for job hunting purposes and can’t really understand why are people posting random self images with random post! Is there something a-logarithmic? , is this plain baiting?

What’s the idea behind posting selfies or pictures of oneself on random LinkedIn posts?!

Business Development Manager

Linkedin has become  a place where people post about cracking tech interviews without any tech discussion. Every guy with or without MAANG gives guidance to clear interviews but none of them posts a single stuff about the tech itself.
Cracking tech interviews in India has become hype like JEE.

Interview Cringe on Linkedin

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

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 

What are the new features in pipe: Kundli and Tarot? 
- LinkedIn Horoscopes: Today’s forecast: Your connection requests will be ignored. Better luck tomorrow!
- LinkedIn Tarot Readings: The cards say stop pretending to enjoy team-building exercises
- LinkedIn Karaoke: Here's a hip hop base track to sing your resignation letter
- LinkedIn Pet Profiles: Cause your cat deserves a professional network too
- LinkedIn Cooking Shows: Cause you are more than your current role
- LinkedIn Meditation Sessions: Your mind needs it own Calm
- LinkedIn Matchmaking: We solved for the jobs, now lets help you find love with someone equally networked

Meta shutting down workplace really dint teach you anything???
To the PMs at LinkedIn – Thanks for teaching us - What not to do when and how.

Remember when LinkedIn was the place to get work done?

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

What to post on LinkedIn which doesn't get tagged as Cringe?

Growth Manager

Opportunities are so much more then when I stared. We never flaunted getting a job into a Top company even when options were fewer. What is the need to give average gyan on linkedin for getting a job offer. Open question to Gen Z why are you so desperate for social validation?

Asked referral from a guy and this is his reply

"Interviews are hard in that they have absolutely nothing to do with your day-to-day job. If I were to go through the interviews again right now I'd make a massive fool of myself. 

I'd say it's basically common knowledge that prior to making any hops, you've got to take at least a month or two to grind leetcode problems so that you're back in that head space where you can solve pointless problems with high efficiency.

Interviews are also hard because, if you end up with the personality type which views interviews as a chance to show how much more clever they are than everyone, then you've already failed. Their ego is tied to their "high bar" and impossible question set, and you're just fodder for them to show off that "high personal bar" during the de-brief."

A lot of FAANG engineers seem to report that the interview was the hardest thing... | Hacker News

A lot of FAANG engineers report that the interview was the hardest thing that they've done, harder than anything they do as part of their actual job

There I said it. It sucks.

The start is a joke - cause here's the plan - If you spend too much time on intros, and you wasting the so called "interview" time. And then you think I should save it for later, lets focus on the interview.

so we move to the stinky middle - the interview part - a web of questions with the obvious non relevant ones in there - and for a fact you will still give a green light to folks by a measure of retention of knowledge, not by knowledge application - cause you give hints to solve the problem sparingly. Here's the fact about your measure of potential - Take away Google and ChatGPT from these managers, and more than half your team would crumble. Wouldn't they use it on everyday job? If yes, then why are you depriving them of it in the interview. 
You will ego battle them - Not answering most of their questions - cause you are not interviewing - you are an interviewer - and they are the interviewee.. or you will conveniently park the questions for later, until a hiring decision is formally made - so you save your time - I mean cmon! thats your game plan. 

And the closing: it’s usually a weak handshake or a sign off and a 'We’ll be in touch' OR 'HR will get back to you'
CLASSIC. And yet.. you expect the job seekers to buy into their 'mission and vision' and become dedicated team member to "your" team. 
Seriously? 

CONVERSATION has a CON in it and you are doing it.
+ you cant hold it, even if your life depended on it.

The only reason the job seeker turned up, and thanked you for your time after the interview - is cause they need a job and were polite. NOTHING ELSE.
In a rare case - you really did a good job, and hence the "thank you"

Most hiring managers can't handle the start, close or even manage the middle of an interview - even if their life depended on it.

Why do female founders and other budding LinkedIn female influencers post their personal pictures(gym photos, selfies, random photos of themselves) on LinkedIn? It’s a professional platform for fucks sake. 

You don’t post these photos on Leap Club but LinkedIn is okay because validation. 

And nobody calls them out. Men are lost in simp behaviour and others ignore them.

As a fresher, most of us have to serve a bond of 2-3 years at our first company. How can one break such bonds without having to pay them as we all know bonds are not legal. I have heard that if u break the bond they don't give u an experience letter . Does showing your payslip work? Or does anyone know of a much better way?

Creative ways to not serve the bond with service based companies

Funny part is people ask him how he got the opportunity, what was the level of ques, etc😭
