I suspect Germany is different. I see here work is much more word-of-mouth, and so I think LLM spam hasn't taken off, because most jobs are not much advertised

I suspect Germany is different. I see here work is much more word-of-mouth, and so I think LLM spam hasn't taken off, because most jobs are not much advertised as they are in the UK/USA. People are like "I know someone who can do that" and then a friend let's you know there's some work you could do.
