LinkedIn locked me out of my own account. The only way back is through Persona — a third-party service that wants a photo of my passport, a scan of my face, and a recording of my movements (liveness detection: turn your head, follow the dot, so a still photo can’t stand in for me). The stated reason: “unusual activity.” The real reason, of course, is big tech spearheading a movement toward absolute control over people.
I got at least one job through LinkedIn but it wasn’t a quality job. Pay was good but was subcontracted and we were treated differently. In my industry you really need to know someone. Linkedin does help in a pinch for sure though.
Maybe a Freindica Business option. Wonder if it’s open source. Maybe, it needs to be free with student IDs or some type of apprenticeship, and paid for by professionals, or just some other bot prevention measure.
Maybe have it with an interface that auto uploads formats that can be used by employers for resumes. Then you can sell the interface option to employers as a way to get resumes autofilled. Might be complicated.
My company has huge retention, people dont tpically leave. Maybe entry roles but they progress to decent conditions really quick. It is usually a job for life with people often doing 40+ years.
Everyone is on LinkedIn. Posting company shit, and liking each others posts. Very odd time someone leaves for a similar role elsewhere but usually either really high level roles and post retirement or entry level management. It boggles my mind, the company even holds days where they get photographers to go out to sites to take linkedIn profile pictures.
