I posted 2 jobs on the Linkedin website, and within a couple of weeks, I was charged $300 without getting any response from any applicant. I canceled the posts and tried to call Linkedin. I found 2 numbers for LinkedIn on the internet, and I tried to call these numbers which leads me to nobody to talk to. I tried to cancel my credit card on their website and I cannot do that. So please, don't trust them in anything and don't do any business with them.

LINKEDIN is a NAZI site
January 26, 2023

Linkedin classifies statements of historical fact as hate speech. 5 million Germans belonged to the Hitler Youth between 1926 and 1945. That is a historical fact. The only people trying to hide the prevalence of Nazism in post-war Germany is neo-nazis.

Most are FAKE people
January 8, 2023

There's no way to find ACTUAL information on this site, it's full of fake names, fake jobs and that's why if you find someone on this website, you're finding a FAKE! NOTHING IN THERE IS LEGIT!

LinkedIn sucks
January 5, 2023

It's a POS site that can lock you out and wants you to upload a picture of your actual driver's license to verify you are who you are after you already verified you are who you are, screw LinkedIn! There is no way I will give them access to my driver's license just to play with their useless site. LinkedIn sucks and they are a waste of time for every user everywhere.

My company has been in business for over 12 years an as scaled astronomically, Our vendor partners consist of the best in business and notable names. Linkedin has severely disappointed our company with strong-arm techniques and poor customer service and follow-up. The only time they attend to a customer is during renewal time. By the way, they try to blindside you by renewing a day earlier. If ypou want to change the product, they delay you and point to an antiquated clause that states you have write to them 30 days in advance to cancel but the rep only starts to call you 15 days in advance. If I can give Zero stars I would. We're not the only recruiting company that feels this way, which is probably why they have a 3.5 stars. If you have alternatives like Careerbuilder, Monster, Dice, Indeed, utilize them as we are very disappointed in the downfall of LinkedIn.

LinkedIn has the absolute worst customer service reps. With a "I'm right, you're wrong" mentality. No notification that my free job posting was switching to paid with their recommended budget of "$51/day". I got charged $100 over a Saturday and Sunday and when I logged on Monday I had a $100 fee. I tried to talk to a Customer Service rep and they just sent me screenshots with no sincerity or trying to understand anything and said basically this is how it works and that's it.

Horrible Service
October 30, 2022

They turned off my account for apparently no reason other than they were born smelly, disgusting friggin' tools. I inquired many a times "specifically" why, but they never had a response.
This kind of power trip is the reason why the world is in tatters.
The place is evidently run by impotent, sissy little dogs that must be grabbed by their collar bones and hung upside down.

I've been using LinkedIn Recruiter for over 15 years now and it's sad to see what was once a game changer for recruiting high in demand talent has now been diminished to a very average at best solution, which frankly is way overpriced. InMail response rates have continued to drop, year after year, and now to make things even worse, LinkedIn came up with the brilliant idea of of banning recruiters from doing bulk InMails if their InMail Response Rates fall below 13%. Now for many Recruiters working on your fairly routine to fill hiring needs, that's not an issue, however for those highly skilled Recruiters specializing in finding your unicorns and purple squirrels of the software industry, this is becoming a big problem. Average response rates for these recruiters often falls below this mark. In such cases LinkedIn gives Recruiters a warning the first time and puts them on a 14 day no bulk InMail punishment period for the second offense. If it's not bad enough that all the work involved in researching these crazy difficult to find targets nets extremely low response rates, now LinkedIn is further eroding our Recruiter's productivity by taking away the ability to InMail batches of people at one time. Mind you, this is taking away a critical feature that my company has already paid for. LinkedIn is blaming everything on the Recruiters and not taking any ownership of the problem themselves, which is very frustrating to say the least. So bottom line, if you've got very difficult to fill hiring needs, LinkedIn Recruiter might not be the best solution out there any longer.

Useful
October 1, 2022

Currently I have more than 500 connection on LinkedIn, with the help of LinkedIn connections, I am able to find people those who have new opputunities for me. Services of LinkedIn are awesome, follow those whome you like. LinkedIn is very user friendly and easy to use, services like endorsement is really useful, sending invites is very important to create new connections. LinkedIn is very optimized it's loading time is very less or its depends on internet connection speed. Chat service of LinkedIn is nice, so you can chat with your connections and get new opportunities in your carrier. Linked support is great, they reply very quickly.

For a cxompany of this size nd based on the fees we pay, how does Linkedin look in the mirror with a straigh face. They are horrible in CS its embarrassing their behavior as if they care not about the service and how important it is day to day. Hire more people if you have too many responses, thats what respomsive companies do!

No regular updates
September 16, 2022

There are a lot of jobs which have either expired or have been filled. There should be a regular update mechanism to archive those postings to ensure relevancy of job or role. Sometimes the UI has an interpretation challenge but over a period of time you get used to it. The Groups can be more structured and guided to enable quick conversations and moderation can overcome irrelevant topics being discussed in the group.

Identity
August 30, 2022

The reason for this review is that LinkedIn is now asking me to upload my ID on their. I say that's BS. I don't have to do that on any other Media. Does tge Government ask illegal immigrants for Voter ID. I guess I'm done with LinkedIn.

I believe LinkedIn is time well spent and a fantastic resource for job searching and professional networking. It has proven to be very beneficial for me and has given me the opportunity to meet and expand my social circle once you get comfortable with it and learn how to weed out the bad and scammers.
Even if you are not actively looking for work, creating a profile on LinkedIn is a great way to get your resume noticed by employers. It keeps you in touch with both former and present coworkers. You can sign up for a free account on LinkedIn, and important people frequently search through resumes and applicants, so even if you're employed, your application is still there and you still have a chance to land your dream job because more and more employers are now using standardised online applications, which increases your likelihood of being hired. LinkedIn also gives you the resources to research the companies before the interview, which is another benefit. You may.

Powerful
August 16, 2022

One of the best social networking site in recent times. Its been an very good website to be part of as it provided opportunity to me to connect with different working people. It also helped me to connect with friends who belongs to different working community. It also acts as job portal for job seekers who are in need of job. It has helped me to endorse my friends to different people who are in need of resources. Linkedin is very powerful social networking site as many recruiters are looking for talented candidates in different streams in this site.
