I suspect it's because there are only largely irrelevant jobs available.

Linkedin Job Search Crippled

It's been a few months since I used the Jobs search function on Linkedin.
Admittedly, it's always been dogtulip. But at least I could do a search with "Contract" ticked and a search term to attempt to sift out all the permie jobs.
It would save my searches automatically so I could go back later and execute them again.

Now? A single "AI Powered" search box that returns all the crap I was trying to avoid in the first place.
It's unusable. I might have to try Google's site-specific meta-search and see if that works. Or work out their APIs if they exist.

Has anyone else solved this problem? Or do you hold your nose and wade through the ocean of Linkedin crap, panning for nuggets?
