>>222028441that's a good thing

>>222028441>Over 500 people have applied for this one position WTF is the point anymore? Are we just all going to be homeless? Even if you do make it to the interviews it’s extremely humiliating.
I have never used linkedin in my life and I never will
>>222028441Just go there in person ffs

>>222028507?
I'm a highschool dropout. I can't use linkedin.
>>222028486the future is freelance and contract i guess. Job rotates faster so that everyone got their cakes
>>222028486Mostly bots and it just counts the people who looked or pressed apply but didn't actually apply. Real number is 5-10% of that.
>>222028502This is common boomer advice. Is it actually true?
>>222028618from what I've heard everything is online these days, people don't even accept resumes in person anymore Though I still don't think it's bad advice, but apparently it is
>>222028618I dont know recruiters call me to offer jobs but it may work. What do you have to lose anyway? Just march in there, slamming fist on their table, GIVE ME A JOB YOU BASTARD
>>222028441>open linkedin
>>222028618no, people will get annoyed with you if you do that
>>222028486You gotta start caming to every stablishment and ask if they are hiring
>>222028486At least half of those people apply without even checking the description of the job and whether they even fit the basic criteria. Tons of jobs in IT now for example require a degree so they can filter out a huge chunk of candidates more easily, and despite that, a lot of people without degrees keep applying
>>222028618Might be true in his Siberian shithole
>>222028529Internet anonymity is a blessing. Some of us are brown/black, some of us are visibly disabled, some of use have accents that arent't exactly appealing, some of us may not have that "middle class and up" aura, and some of us are just plain fucking ugly. So with online applications being a thing, those who fit in any combination of what I stated above don't have to deal people being judgemental cunts or tossing your CV out the minute you turn around. There's a layer of protection in other words.

>>222028618>>222028662it kinda depends
>>222028486My boss told me he just did a round of interviewsHe said HR forced him to interview the most qualified He said they all lied on their resume except one guyHe said the one guy is mid with potential, so he’s hiring him
>>222028486In the trades you just call the boss man and ask if he needs people. He’s usually nice enough to at least give you some leads
funnily enough i implemented that feature when i worked at linkedin
>>222028800Mindbroken muscovian COW (dont look up what that means) thinks it's alright when people cant have jobs
