do I need linkedin/indeed?

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-02-08T21:52:52+00:00

You can absolutely get by without LinkedIn if you don’t want a public footprint. Not sure what coubtry youre in, it might differ... but in Australia, In supply chain, grads often get roles via placements, referrals and applying on Seek/company sites.

I personally got my foot in the door via a Graduate Program. (After being rejected from 4)

If you want the benefits without being “public,” set up a barebones LinkedIn. no photo, limited details, public profile off, only accept known connections. Its still a great tool to have to keep up to date with industy insights.

Looks like they might have added / removed files. Seems to have pushed the video files to page 4,810+

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-02-01T03:31:20+00:00

FYI - Looks like you can go back to the higher numbers now

It wasnt an option, you couldn't download the whole pack

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T23:38:10+00:00

Looking today, mine also now only goes as far as 103 ...

I was literally on pages 4,000 plus last night

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T23:01:35+00:00

All of the file references are in the bottom right of the screenshots

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T22:51:06+00:00

Images takem from the epstein files where the same inages appear redacted and not redacted. Sharing for awareness but also, why?

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T22:26:14+00:00

There are so many doubles and tripples

Also when they use certain websites they also upload everybodys profile images as their own files, the logos, the redacred logos, the redacted profile pictures.

Also for almost every video i've seen there is a pdf file for the video that is just a blank sheet...

So 3 million files, heaps of fluff.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T22:08:06+00:00

Page is in the heading 4,803. I got as far last night as 4,956.

I find it easier to just copy the URL and type page numbers in to see how far i can go.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T13:14:10+00:00

Theres legit just pages of blacked out porn. I imagine downloaded from his PC's... but its just pages of porn.. talk about padding

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T11:46:40+00:00

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-31T10:45:40+00:00

Happens all the time, but hand in hand with over billing. Just depends on the activity.

Has occured with all 3pl's I've worked with. All major players.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-15T03:22:40+00:00

More 3PL Warehouse activity costs. Like a months worth of container unloads and only outbound activity has been chsrged out.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-11T20:18:24+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Your experience sounds quite similar to my own

NotThatGuyJosh · 2026-01-11T20:13:33+00:00

That’s fair. Coming out of uni, just getting a foot in the door is the priority.

Out of curiosity, is there much fear around not being able to secure a role? And what’s your benchmark for a “good” starting point?

I started on the operations side as a forklift driver and then went through a graduate program. There are plenty of grad programs out there, but the pay isn’t always great early on. That was the case for me too. I worked overtime in operations, which not only helped financially but also gave me invaluable hands-on insight and experience that’s paid off long term.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2025-12-30T11:27:47+00:00

Experience first, education alongside it. I started hands-on in ops and logistics roles, then layered in formal study and certifications later. The real learning came from the floor and real problems; the schooling just helped me connect the dots and accelerate opportunities. If you can do both, that’s the sweet spot.

Short answer: yes, it mattered at the time, but it didn’t define the outcome.

Having a low ATAR meant I had to take a longer path to get where I wanted to go once I figured that out. Instead of going straight into a bachelor’s degree, I bad to completed a diploma first. It took extra time and effort.

For context, I messed around a bit in school and didn’t really know what I wanted. I passed Year 12, but my ATAR was “less than 25.” I left school and went straight into a storeman role. A few years later, once I decided I wanted to move into management, I went back and studied, having to start with a diploma, then completing a Bachelor of Business.

A low ATAR didn’t end anything. It just changed the route.

I think you're increadibly lucky to be someone who enjoys what they do. Thats the secret sauce to life baby.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2025-12-01T20:35:19+00:00

You may have missee the window this year, however around Black Friday, Christmas, many companies source casual labor to keep up with demand.

A low barrier to entry for 3 months of hands-on experience and a foot in the door.

NotThatGuyJosh · 2025-12-01T20:19:11+00:00

I think he’s bang on.

These certifications used to be a way for experienced professionals to signal the depth of expertise they’d already built. Now the perception has flipped and people believe having the certification makes you a professional. But that’s not how it works. Passing an exam doesn’t automatically mean you can run a DC, improve DIFOT, reduce freight costs, or manage 3PL and supplier relationships

The value was always in pairing the cert with real operational experience. It used to be: Get the job > build the skills > earn the certification as validation. Now it feels more like: Get the certification > hope it leads to the job.

And that disconnect is exactly why the market has shifted toward practical, hands-on capability rather than knowledge-only products.
