Serious question - what convinced you to sign up for the premium in the first place?
Job-seekers get like, 5 InMails and 3 useless search filters, plus some vanity fluff that does nothing (who viewed your profile).
5 InMails may be worth the price in some cases, but I've always felt the jobseeker service was somewhat predatory. That you found it worthwhile makes me curious - am I missing something?

- rubidium 11y agoI was brand new to the market, so had nearly zero connections. I followed the "Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters" system. A couple replies: - Who viewed your profile was helpful. I'd send out a "cold call" email to someone, and if they clicked through to my linkedin profile then I knew they were interested. I'd then try to phone them as soon as they saw my profile. It's surprisingly effective. - The InMails were helpful. I preferred to actually call or email over inmail, but in some cases there was _no_ contact info for the person. In that case, InMail really was the only way to contact someone, and I did get 2 nice contacts out of it.
