Out of my 10000 notifications I ignore, I got one message… and that’s from the LinkedIn team.
Comment on It’s time for a hard reset on notifications
jarfil@beehaw.org 2 months agoLinkedIn has messages? Maybe I don’t use it much, but it seemed like it had ads, and self-promoting messages, or more ads.

Yeah, I needed to have it on for a week for work stuff. And it kept giving me random notifications about news and stuff. I couldn’t figure it out.

Aren’t messages the only point of LinkedIn? You create a profile which is basically your CV, set it to “looking for work”, and wait for recruiters to message you, right?

I’ve switched off the “looking for work” after the n-th recruiter who hadn’t even bothered reading my profile. I was under the impression that LinkedIn should also work as a social network for people to “word of mouth” recommend each other, or openings at wherever they work, but all I get is “coach” and “courses” type spam.

That is the trouble with relying on recruiters, there’s essentially no bar to entry so the industry is flooded with talentless chancers
