LinkedIn can be used to post a lot of dumb things, like “CEO at XYZ” or “Future IB MD”. But what are some of the best things you’ve seen posted that actually showed humility? Like someone who has a prestigious position but made sure not to brag about it or tried to hide it?

I don't see how this answers the OP... He directly states his position in the title and then gives all his previous positions in the about section. Nothing is being hid here...
there is nothing humble on linkedin
Wouldn’t that be just... not having a LinkedIn profile?
LinkedIn does help for networking though, especially for nontargets
None. Saw a post the other day that said "Extremely excited and hubled to announce that this upcoming semester I will be acting as executive treasurer for ___ sorority". Was very close to deleting my account
LinkedIn is great for a lot of things. Humility is not one of them.
The worst is when people make random posts like "Never give up!" "You are worth more than that rejection letter!" and get like 300 likes
My favorite ones are people at hedge funds who have nothing on their Linkedin. That's how I know you made it, you can't even flex anymore.
They just have better things to do than give a fuck about a LinkedIn profile.
I always just thought it was compliance related
"Hedge Fund at NYC" or "Hedge Fund at Greenwich" has big dick energy
