LinkedIn

To be fair, I just looked at a couple of pages on this site and gave up. They list no wages. That's a huge factor in sifting through the jobs. Some of the same jobs are listed on Indeed, and Indeed lists the wages.

While LinkedIn started as a good idea, it's not really a good place to connect because people try to add quantity instead of substance of connections. I get far too many connection requests from people who work for companies I have never worked for or are just not in my state. I would prefer to connect with people who are close to or in my home town for job prospects and as a sort of reference list.

There are a lot of jobs which have either expired or have been filled. There should be a regular update mechanism to archive those postings to ensure relevancy of job or role. Sometimes the UI has an interpretation challenge but over a period of time you get used to it. The Groups can be more structured and guided to enable quick conversations and moderation can overcome irrelevant topics being discussed in the group.

Great place to network with your peers. I find it helpful to learn what is going on in my industry. I don't expect too much from them, they don't disappoint.

Overall Linkedin is a decent site to build your career. However, from my minimal experience on the site, it's not good for connecting with people. I usually got connection requests from people who are unrelated to my line of work. They need to do better work on their algorithms.

I tried to merge two accounts and was told to contact customer support. So I click on the "ME" icon and then "Help", which is supposed to direct me to click "get help from us". However, there is no such icon - it's a dead end. So I look up their customer service phone number (no easy feat), and then when I call, they will NOT ALLOW ME to SPEAK WITH A LIVE AGENT. They keep directing me back to the internet where the problem started to begin with. Seriously guys, this is a first-class job search engine? You have to do better than this!

I made an account here because a company that I tried to apply to work for decided that it was MANDATORY to insert a LinkedIn profile in the application. Ever since I made one, I disabled communications on it, and yet coincidentally, I've been receiving job spam on my email consistently. I have to unsubscribe them to stop.

Prior to making an account, I used to get email from people saying they want to connect despite me not ever having an account on LinkedIn. Not only was this annoying, but it didn't make me feel that great about LinkedIn to begin with. Even after making the account, I feel like it has absolutely no use. I'm giving a third party all this information about myself. I like my manual resume and I don't like LinkedIn.

I still kept the account because (1) everywhere asks for it and (2) yes, there are some pros about LinkedIn. Despite being a seemingly failed version of Facebook, it still provides connects to possibly employment. I've seen many places hiring (relating to my field!) However, I wouldn't pay to use this website.

Not happy with quality of the product, also the size, I was looking for a Banner to put it in the business as sign

LinkedIn is blocked since February 2017 in Russia because of customer security reasons. Customers are compromised, they say. Could the Russian government know Ed Snowden better than we do? No doubt they are right. I cannot access my Linked in Page from where I live in Russia.

Not all companies fully utilize this site so its difficult to find good jobs or to get all the latest information or employee information. The free version works fine for most, but I personally haven't found any jobs through this site.

Not so good as could be. Almost every single platform allows me to see what is going on there, except LinkedIn. Signing in is obligatory and that irritates me.

I joined this social network in 2017. Until now I don't understand What's the use of it.
Does anyone get a job thought Linkedin?

LinkedIn is emerged as the best application/web for connecting with professionals and companies so easily. It helps me a lot to improve my personality and find a suitable job.

It's very expensive to have a premium account, and simple not worth it to have a regular one. Not worth it, as far as I'm concerned.

Too many messages form users I never heard about. Must do something about their spam problem! I will never pay this way!

The social networks have become the norm where friends connect online. This is the equivalent for the employment network. Prospecting employees and employers can connect with each other. This may seem like a good thing, yet I have encountered many charlatans advertising their home businesses to me hoping to get me to invest. Some terrible agencies like Workway have wasted my time at least three times. I have not found a job with this service so don't get your hopes up.

Like it or not, it's one of those things you should have if you want to enter a professional career (research, business, academia, ect). It's just for your education and accomplishments and where employers can gloss you over.
Fill out your profile, add what you've done and skills, add people you know and have them vouch for you.

It's not supposed to be fun. It's a resume supplement.

Website/App is useful. But has lots of bugs and issues. Mainly, even after loading/refreshing the 'Home' page, it keeps on showing the old posts. What it should do is, when the 'Home' page gets refreshed/reloaded, the posts should be arranged from the most recent to the old ones.

Sometimes the searching is difficult where it doesn't show new people. Needs to be creative sometimes on what keywords you are searching for.

I've received lots if spam email from them. They seem to believe that signing up is an invitation to spam you. Plus they try to limit viewing content unless you are logged in.

I keep my LinkedIn profile up-to-date and have tried to utilize it as often as possible for searching for jobs, but their supply of non-profit openings is very limed, hence the mediocre rating.

Meh!
Listen, I love the idea. I really, really do. LinkedIn provides an important, useful, and definitely needed service. The only problem? It's REALLY poorly executed. Like, really poorly. Their new decision to allow almost anyone to publish content has really devastated the content ecosystem, as "marketers" pump the space with poorly written click bait and thinly veiled SEO spam.

It's a funny site, geared towards the rich side
