I got off twitter because it is nothing more than a robot-controlled media outlet. Gab.ai and bebee.com is where it’s at now.
LinkedIn.. the dominant job search message I’m seeing now is “I cannot get a job through LI no matter what I try” ( followed by “I’m destitute and overqualified- please help me find a job”).
I find indeed.com to be extremely useful in dragging out the otherwise niche markets and to see where trends are, especially how many 3rd party recruiters are chasing after a req. twitter’s dead
+Maurice Levie There are ways to use Twitter. It still works but never as often as people hope
The real uses are probably just to get some sort of vibe on what is going on but I find it to be useless. Too many fake accounts and even LI is full
Of these now. Bebee.com is much much better and allows for branding to happen a la about.me
