    Eh, it’s Facebook in a suit-and-tie. Rarely does anything get above the level of watercooler talk, job-fair friendly material, and hiring/training/talent influencers strutting their stuff.

    Also, like Facebook, the most useful part of it is the built-in chat. It’s hard to stand out on the “feed” if you’re not a company, and most of your networking and job hunting happens in chat. The latter is crucial since recruiters use this to screen out robots and invalid candidates, and it’s your best opportunity to do the same. And you will get feelers from crafty LLMs pushing all kinds of sketchy “opportunities.”

    Meanwhile, the slop that hits your feed is inreasingly AI-generated nonsense, awful infographics, techbro/ceo-bro influencer nonsense, and just straight-up corporate PR advertising. It would be better if people posted things, but nobody wants to say or do anything that would cost a job now or in the future.
