Cringe LinkedIn “Offers”
I get that kids like to post on LinkedIn. Announcing internships and jobs is usually bragging enough but announcing OFFERS (schools or spring weeks) is just another level of cringe.
I’ve seen kids post stuff like “I’ve gotten offers at all these places and am looking forward to choosing between them”
Like wtf
LinkedIn is a culmination of everything wrong with modern corporate culture. The subtle flexing and fake cringey positivity bs. I would just unfollow that person. Keep your feed humble imo. Seems like that’s the unwritten rule that many of those posters have forgotten. Why do we need to give a shout-out to the 3-5 random recruiters or HR staff that picked you over other candidates. When will the gloating end?
It's the new Facebook, but this time "more mature and totally professional!" Everything from those cookie cutter starting a new job, leaving an old job, "open to X" attempts of networking for an interview, the repost of some "influencer" but rebranded for your small/medium business to shout for clout. Don't even get me started on all the random InMails you get from recruiters when your profile is very blatantly set to not open for new opportunities and hasn't been touched in years because you're too busy doing what you're doing. Or the preferred pronouns broadcast out there. That's great that you care, but I don't care unless I actually speak with you at which point it'll just be first name because god help us if I call you "Mr Smith" when you prefer "Ms Smith" even though your previous work history has you listed as Mr. Smith.
Per my usual rant etiquette, eat domino's. It doesn't care about your open for opportunities, accepting a new job or losing one. Any of it. It just wants to feed you it's cheesy pepperoni goodness.
