LinkedIn referrals mean jack shit.
As I said:
> anything past where you've worked on LinkedIn is a waste of time
Because everything on LinkedIn literally exists to be farmed. And why wouldn't it? LinkedIn's customers are recruiters. Users are the currency.
OP would be better served by actually networking with their peers. Not in app-mediated (and -monetized) ways, but in normal social human ways.
Sometimes it's like people forgot how to say "Hey, want to grab a coffee and catch up? What's been going on with you?"
- guiambros 1y ago> LinkedIn's customers are recruiters. Exactly this. And recruiters are the ones finding candidates and scheduling interviews. You may not like it. I certainly don't. But that's the world we live in. > "Hey, want to grab a coffee and catch up?" This and the comment above are not at odds. If you're looking for a job like OP, at minimum you should do both.
