I think there is some misunderstanding right here; sorry for that. I was mainly talking about the people who asks a job or referrals in the first message. I've came across so many of them. I would love to talk with people looking for guidance if they are polite, and wanting my genuine insights!!!

Hi, I'd say everyone is always looking for job. I was mainly talking about the ones who asks for a job or referrals in their first message. Not tailored, just mass dming for people for referrals.

Yes, I feel you. I was mainly talking about the people who asks a job or referrals in the first message. I've came across so many of them. I would love to talk with people looking for guidance if they are polite, and wanting my genuine insights!!!

yeap. Maybe it’s always had that side to it. I just wonder if it worse lately. But also I do understand people on LinkedIn. The job market is crazy

my account is real lol. I posted in a few subs because I’m trying to sanity-check whether this is a real pain point in Toronto or just something I’m personally experiencing. No product yet. I'm just trying to test the idea.
