When’s the last time your heart told you to post “today I went for an interview. [insert bullshit here] I was rude to a passerby’s dog. [more bullshit] The dog was the interviewer.”?

LinkedIn slop has a certain smell to it like no other spam does. I’m still puzzled as to why anyone does it - *surely* everyone from the cohort you wish to attract is familiar with it and sees right through it? Even for marketing positions I don’t see how this can translate to other, actually-profitable venues since this kind of content wouldn’t work anywhere else.

Same as the rest of the corporate world. LinkedIn sloppers hire LinkedIn sloppers until the only way to get into <insert high paying company / industry> is to post about your "experiences" like - "I was late for the interview because I saw a homeless dog outside and went to get it some food and sit to ask about its day [more bullshit] Half way through the interview the dog came in - turns out they were the CEO."
