I can only agree. Specifically, their job recommendations repeatedly insisted (until I finally got around to muting them) that because I'd had a job in a particular city some years ago, clearly that made me an ideal match for positions in entirely different fields.

Seriously, if your company's raison d'etre is employment, and you're giving equivilancy to a long-ago location as to someone's actual field of expertise.. I'm, generously, hoping things improve.

For many people, jobhunting can be a soul-crushingly tedious, utterly unrewarding experience, and LinkedIn's seemingly unaware and uninterested, preferring self promotion with all the inerrant accuracy of AdWords.
