I always believe if they were going to be realistic most adverts would begin.
Applicants named "Mick (Crocodile) Dundee" will be given preference as you will be up to your arse in Alligators from day one, though anyone who can spend the day walking through the swamp of stupidity without going postal, are welcome to the job!
Pay - abysmal.
Promotion - limited unless you kiss ass.
Working conditions - variable.
Get in there girlfriend!

I wanted to post "Well give us some feedback why our rainbow mane is not just the right shade of purple, feckwit or just acknowledge our existence".
Same with Political posts just laugh & move on!

It's not just current engagement, what about future ones?
Posting anything political/religious/negative/aggressive on Linkedin will only ever harm you for absolutely no gain.
Just sign up to twitter or reddit and rant to your heart's content.

LinkedIn: Blaze of glory
Apart from the occasional 'IR35' post, my LinkedIn posts are carefully 'neutral' and based around 'GizzaJob' type posts.
Lost my tulip today re: anti-Semitism and policing response and posted a bit of a rant.
Until tomorrow....I 'work' (NCOTBAC anymore) in the middle of 'policing'.
30 minutes......agency telling me to remove my post!
To be fair, I've removed all info in my profile and in the post which identified agency, consultancy or client; don't want to upset anyone until the last invoice is in .
