Maybe I'm exposing my own stupidity here, but why would it be bad to advertise the position? Is it because they used LinkedIn or is the mere action of advertising the position instead of trying to fill the position in secrecy the bad part?
I'm guessing that $TODAYS_ENEMY would know about the position being unfilled no matter if it's posted on LinkedIn or not, which some "former submariner" complained about.
- StayTrue 3y agoNone of the internal candidates qualified to do the job are interested, which says something.
- deidei 3y ago> why would it be bad to advertise the position? Not an expert but from what I understand a position of this level should ideally be filled internally by reassigning or promoting a officer that is already serving. These posts are really important and need someone with decades of experience in the navy. It is terrible if they cannot find someone internally.

- Enginerrrd 3y agoI wouldn't even say ideally. I would say filling internally is essential. The top comment on the featured article I think summarizes it well: It's not the broader recruitment issue among gen Z. It's that for some reason none of the senior officers below this position want it. THAT is indeed quite troubling. It suggests strongly that the entire organization has deep systemic issues that no one wants to step up and try to fix.
- macintux 3y agoI'm guessing it has more to do with the shame of not having a pool of obvious candidates available. An admiral who has no subordinates or peers who are qualified for the position?
