Family members of mine are in tech, and do work that is in the 2xx,xxx range. One's based, one's semi-based. Both have had low levels of attention to their profiles on the regular but nothing outstanding given that the niche they both occupy is in demand and there isn't a lot of people to fill these seats. They both happen to be white people. One male, one female.
Linkedin has learning partnerships in a program called linkedin learning. Based person was doing some of these... got no real increase in attention. Out of bordem, my based family member completed their diversity training ESG/DIE program on linkedin.
Within 6 hours, literally, she had 8 people from 8 different companies reach out to her and ask her if she was looking for work. The next day, she had another 10 messages. Clearly, completing the humiliation ritual did something to the algorithm to give her top placement in searches.
Based told Semi-based. Semi-based family member completed it, but is male. Still suddenly went from getting no random messages to having 5 in his inbox after 12 hours.
What I'm saying is, play the game if you're desperate but be aware there's a fookin game afoot. I doubt, I severely doubt, anybody who is a recruiter put the ESG linkedin learning diversity bullshit as a requirement in their canvasing searches. But here we go, the company is putting their thumb on the scale for progressivism.
Progressives want you broke, homeless and starving.
(Maybe the boost in interaction is designed to be like a cult's "love bomb" to encourage engagement with wokeshit.)
Hmm. So probably I get de-boosted because every time I'm recommended a "black voice," I block that shit. Every time someone in my network shares some DIE garbage, I mute them.
Happily employed right now though, so not too concerned for the time being.
doing any kind of social media through LinkedIn is your biggest mistake. if you must use it, only use it as a dump for your resume and a place to reach out directly to employers.
Oh, agreed 100%. I typically only log in to respond to recruiters, "I'm good now, but feel free to reach out in the future if you have a good fit." I figure it can't hurt. Then I click the main "feed" out of boredom and quickly get the hell out of there because it's generally awful.
I'll keep that in mind when I'll want to change jobs.
Each time I do one of those mandatory DIE trainings I grow ever more resentful, at least I can get some benefit from it.
Man, in 2017 I went to work at a men's camping, hunting an fishing store. They STILL had a fucking diversity training. It's like... motherfuckers are coming here to buy shitty zebco "I am a baby" reels. I don't need to know about invented grievances to restock that.
Good. Do more things that increase your hatred. We all should.
I love that other people are calling it DIE.
I've heard that soon they're going to change from "DEI" to "EA", for "Equity and Antiracism" Barf.
Because everyone already loves the EA tag...
lol ea its in the lawsuit... no joke that would be hillarious if this somehow sparked litigation from electronic arts for brand confusion or something.
Something occurred to me after getting up and having a walk around. If the main result of their learning program is massive interest in their ESG bullshit because word of this gets out, they're going to credit ESG with making their learning system a success to investors. They'll also use it to claim the general population is highly motivated/interested/involved.
One fucking hell of a catch 22.
Yet another form of Lysenkoism. They're always looking or ways to make reality conform to their ideology.
You should dress up in drag and intentionally look like shit. Put on tons of makeup, a cheap wig, etc. Take some headshots, post them on LinkedIn and then go to the interviews looking like the "It's Ma'am!" guy. Then when they hire you just dress normally and act like none of the tranny shit ever happened. Everyone will be so uncomfortable that they won't call you on it, and if the do, you sue them.
Does it have to be LinkedIn? Could he all the companies are so pozzed that ESG outweighs skill.
That's what I'm thinking. Most tech business are fully converged at this point. I wouldn't doubt at all that they're filtering out heretics in their searches for new employees. Hell, I wouldn't doubt that their official corporate policy spells out that people without DIE indoctrination can't work there.
Tech is in a massive bubble that's currently popping. Bubbles attract the scummiest of scum, and anti-white racists are the worst scum there is. Once the excess dries up and the leeches are swept away, things will get better. It's happening as we speak, but it's going to take a while to clear out all of the garbage clogging everything up.
LinkedIn is terminally pozzed. I went to update my profile banner this week, and it was like "which flavor of faggot banner would you like?" The choices were trannie, flag, fag flag and every other woke symbol you could imagine.
Good lord people do those trainings now when they aren't on the clock?
But remember, you have smart phones and fast internet now and you didn't when you were a kid: therefore life is better, you should be happier, and if you aren't you're "spoiled".
or poor... dial up still exists and you can still get it if you want it.
Microsoft delivers the virus with MSNBC and its integration with Windows/Edge too.
I'm always glad I never fell into the trap of "tech" companies and all the other types of industries where linkedin isn't treated like "hoity toity shit."
Has the layoffs hit them yet? It should, Blackrock's doing fear mongering.
But they're on linkedin? sus
Nobody wants to walk barefoot across broken glass but sometimes a crisis requires it.
You don’t work.
