Insufferable LinkedIn Posts
Sorry - I know this topic gets posted often but I've been seeing some particularly worrying trends. Just this morning I saw an entire post by an intern that said "Can't believe my internship with XYZ is halfway over! This has been such a great learning ....." and they finished it off by including a full picture of the bank's logo. Wtf is this? How could making it halfway through a virtual internship possibly warrant a full LinkedIn post? Smh
This is why I stopped using LinkedIn, so much shite it's insufferable sometimes.
Unfortunately for the kids posting this tripe, it's usually driven by careers services in colleges and HR at the various internships who for some strange reason keep harping on about LinkedIn being vital and needing to constantly update it - which means the kids don't know any better and just think that's what you're meant to do, especially as they see their classmates and fellow interns make the same posts.
Agreed - LinkedIn is on a slippery slope. Soon it will be Facebook2.0 and unusable. The political posts have already started to trickle in too....
I agree in principle.
However, most of the kids posting this type of stuff could benefit from it. HR people are suckers for those BS progress posts so it gives them some visibility at the very junior levels (ie getting an internship, etc.)
As for the political posts and random videos... natural selection will take care of those.
I, unfortunately, agree with the above. Everyone has an agenda and you may not be their target audience.
Imagine the opposite being true though. Someone posting "Halfway through this internship and boy am I GETTING PAID! If I wanted to learn, I'd take summer classes. This banking shit is EASY!"
HR are just a buncha Karen’s and Kelvins - should be the first thing AI eliminates
