So if it's so bad...which we can all mostly agree on. Why hasn't a better solution taken hold of the market?

- runawaybottle 6y agoBecause there is a song and dance involved in maintaining a career. Who you know, how you look, how you talk, and if you’re lucky, how good you are at a job. Dance dance dance, congratulate others, share your new job, upkeep your references, dance to every song, and then show up to work and do the same dance there. You don’t actually believe you’re getting paid to just do your job right? Remember everyone, repeat after me, I am successful, I am successful, I am ... I am successful, therefore I am. Dance your ass off.
- executesorder66 6y agoI mean there is stuff like https://stackoverflow.com/jobs https://stackoverflow.com/jobs and in South Africa we have offerzen.com which are not brilliant but they are much better than linkedin. So there are some for tech related jobs. Probably because they realized that tech people in general hate linkedin and don't really use it for getting jobs. So there was a market for a platform. Whereas for other people linkedin already fills that space (crappily) and most people tend to just put up with it. I'd assume anyone who wants to disrupt the online job finding market now has to compete with microsoft. So any innovative idea they have for their platform will quickly be implemented in linkedin before they get any sort of traction. So no one bothers, and linkedin stays crap.
