been getting insanely annoyed with people (with barely any experience) opening up topmate pages and charging college students for interviews, texts, cv reviews and calls.
have even seem some undergraduates who have only done one summer sde intern and opening up topmate pages
idk if it's just me but i don't think it's a good idea to charge money to college kids who are just trying to get some advice.
in some cases I've seen people charging money even from their own juniors ( same college)
just because 5 people texted you on LinkedIn doesn't make you a king/queen, please quit the narcissism, it reeks of your need of validation from vulnerable and desperate juniors
