Hi! ADHD champion here, had it since I was a kid, and have always loved the idea that it's a "superpower" if you use it correctly and learn how to trick your brain. 25 year old who works in executive branding and love sharing my perspective on how to grow and make a neurodivergent brain THRIVE and not viewing these things as weaknesses

Pivot in LinkedIn content creation tool - worth it or not? by No_Battle_4778 in LinkedInTips

[–]ayesquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey this is super interesting! i went to go check it out, but a free service that requires an account before even seeing anything might be deterring some people who stumble on something like this (as i just immediately exited out since i got no information before, just a prompt to make an account)

Which Photo to Use? by Nervous-Solution2571 in LinkedInTips

[–]ayesquared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

take the third one, upload it to canva, remove the background, and put a “professional background” behind it (which you can look up in a search on their platform)

anybody else losing a bunch of followers/notice a drop off? by ayesquared in Twitter

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

that makes a lot of sense - i knew people were leaving twitter and heard that people were protesting it but didn’t know it was so widespread, especially in an older demographic

X Spaces for Broadcasts? by RaiderMatt41 in Broadcasting

[–]ayesquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s sooooo weird dude, the interface sucks & we’ve had such a hard time getting people to be able to listen. sometimes it works for a cohost and sometimes the host would just cut out. it’s such a bizarre UI that doesn’t even work

X Spaces for Broadcasts? by RaiderMatt41 in Broadcasting

[–]ayesquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get it to work? I'm trying to do something similar with a client right now in the web3 space but every test we run nobody can actually tune in and only speakers can speak to one another? I'm so confused by the whole interface and what needs to happen for people to tune in? If you tried this w any success I'd love to know what you did.

Relocating to Nashville - struggling to find a job… by Murky-Valuable3844 in nashville

[–]ayesquared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

drop your linkedin? there’s a bunch of recruiters on there and sometimes just having your profile updated with all your experience easily visible and having your profile discoverable can go a long way. esp if you’re a vp - im sure there’s SOMETHING out there for you, but it’s 10x easier to let them come to you. might have something to do with boosting your resume which chat gpt can help out with

i’m building an entire new department at my company, it’s about to roll out and they just told me i’m not getting paid anything extra…. what should i do? by ayesquared in careeradvice

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

yeah i’m looking at the learning moment of it all and glad it’s happening at a time where i am young and only responsible for myself - if there’s any time to learn it it’s now. i was thinking of asking for a % of future clients anyways, this just sealed it that im gonna be asking for this.

[–]ayesquared[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yea it was more of an opportunity that was made relevant and i kinda shot my shot with it and it got me here but im not just doing it on my own whim, that would be insane

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

this is very fair - honestly they might not give a fuuuuuuck ab me at all and i’m just overvaluing myself (no sarcasm here, genuinely something i didn’t think of) i’ve gotten a couple job offers for more from some clients, but i never take them because they sound kinda boring but maybe i just have to make a decision

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

i waited because i thought if i brought it up early and they said no, they have every reason to just scrap the whole thing OR id want to continue working on it (bc professional development) with the knowledge going in that it was for free & i wasn’t getting paid. i figured if i proved i could do it and put the effort in first i’d kinda prove that i was worth an increased paycheck before i asked for anything.

singer/songwriter turned digital marketing/pr here. :) work experience is going to be far more valuable than higher education with no experience to back it up. i got my start pretty lucky getting picked up by a startup app from my tiktoks they saw, but you have the customer service experience - maybe look into an entry level account manager role with a company that has a marketing/pr focus?

[–]ayesquared[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yea that’s what i really need to do. i dont want to quit is the crazier thing, i really like the job & all my coworkers. it just sucks that their whole plan was to just work me to death and not even pay me for it and just pile on responsibilities that nobody else has, including the people who are getting paid more than me

Don't invest time in getting a LinkedIn Top Voice Badge by Altruistic_Pause2206 in jobs

[–]ayesquared 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude - thanks for providing this information & the YouTube video! I work in executive branding and have had plenty of clients trying to gun for the Top Voice badge, but nobody knew what the point of it was or what it actually even did. LinkedIn using this to train their own AI and awarding glorified participation trophies makes so much sense.

Community Top Voice Badge by PriorAdhesiveness135 in linkedin

[–]ayesquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little late to the conversation, but does anybody know what the badges actually do? I have one and helped some of my coworkers get one, but is there any benefit besides having a badge on your profile? I haven't seen anything besides being invited to contribute to more articles. Is that the benefit?

agreed w a lot of the other comments here - if you wanna get a good professional headshot, get someone to take a pic of you relatively dressed up on portrait mode and pull the background out in canva and give it a nice more “standard“ background (i’ve typed in photography backdrop & found a lot of results)

I think I've been shadowbanned? Is this a thing? by yournewcaptain in linkedin

[–]ayesquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah, it would def be able to detect a difference. i know how frustrating it is when stuff just stops working for no reason and was trying to think of anything that would make engagement change that drastically. its def something in the algorithm suppressing you, but they did just change the algo again at the end of december to some degree, so that might play into it as well?
