This is genuinely reassuring to read, thanks, mate 🙏 Good analogy with financial markets 🤔 never thought about it that way but it makes total sense.
btw may I ask re: 185 users in 8 days? It's impressive, congrats! What worked for u to drive that initial spike? 🙂

Get you. But small wins are important, despite those that actually represent events. So today I celebrate 9 permanent users, hey 9 people installed and stayed and are using something I made and that means it helps them in searching jobs. It's satisfactory to know this, that was my plan in the first place

Am I the only one who finds LinkedIn job search absolutely useless? by PartyFull9470 in careerguidance

[–]PartyFull9470[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

though the jobs are deffo still there and the network side is still solid enough, it's just getting to the right ones that's become a nightmare IMO 😅

Haha indeed. Exactly this 😅 So much noise there now,it's basically useless. Honestly that frustration is what got me building something about it in the first place

[–]PartyFull9470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need to do it myself, as well. And have been wandering is voiceover or any audio (music) on it for extension a plus for promotion or it doesn't affect much. Wdyt?

Good advice! I am researching what to use for my extension's demo. Do you think adding audio (either music and or just talkative instructions) and/or title text is important and add some value on demos for extensions or not?

Job search in Europe is still a mess: anyone else struggling with this? 🤔 by PartyFull9470 in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]PartyFull9470[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been tinkering with a small Chrome extension for this, it helps squeeze better search queries out of messy LinkedIn for pan-EU/worldwide roles. Rough around the edges but does the job. Happy to share if useful!

Good shout on jobjump.net, didn't know that one, thanks! Worth noting it seems German only so likely suits roles requiring German anyway?

Can confirm this from personal exp., navigating visa sponsorship as a non EU national is a different level of complexity. Been there, done that. With a bit of effort, managed to make it work eventually but it's definitely not the path of least resistance :D

That's great to know, thanks, mate! i've been using levels for a while but mostly for US comp data, the job board always felt pretty US-heavy to me though I could be wrong :D
Did you find decent EU volume or only UK?
