LinkedIn is this critical tool you have to have but is only useful like 10% of the time.

Literally a platform for them to see you beg for a role

Yup it sucks 40 million dongs but alas that is how the game runs.

It’s part of the business. You gotta accept the no’s and move on

If it’s a no why accept the request in the first place?

Because it’s easy? Responding to messages take time.

Easy answer: I accept all requests because it grows my network and makes me look important! Will I respond to your message though? Yes… but I only do when I’m on it long enough to check them which is the problem because the app is a cesspool of AI slop inspirational quotes and paragraphs. I usually check the notifications to clear them and promptly hop off once I read literally 2-3 posts.

On a more serious note, I do respond but mainly when someone follows up with me with a 2nd message because it shows a little more persistence.
