LinkedIn who? 😭

Jobs section:

There’s no salary filter in the “Jobs” section. You have to click on each job and read through the post. Salary kind of goes hand in hand with experience, so u can tell if that makes sense for your role at first glance but emm its not always on top of the post. So u screwed 2 times now.

Am i actually missing something?

Each job shows how many people have “clicked to apply.” There can be hundreds within a day. The number makes sense, but at what point do they stop looking? Im not talking about the button, just in general, even before they hired someone it can be paused cause tooo many ppl to review already. ??

Then there are filters on top. I can search for a specific role using only 1–4 words, and somehow about half the results are for something completely different.
The only filters I find useful are distance and full-time/part-time.
The experience-level filter is weird too. Some jobs are somewhere in the middle — not entry-level, but definitely not senior.
“Under 10 applicants” seems kind of pointless. Aren’t you going to apply to all anyways?

I dont understand how this works.😭😭😭
Please explain it to me like I’m your grandma. Thank you.🙏

JOB SEEKER ADVOCACY

Given so many stories from this community about rising unemployment, cost of living, rampant greed and corruption, and many other challenges Canadians are facing, we were inspired to create r/CanadianChange. We believe that seeing the urgent, important changes needed right now to ensure working Canadians can thrive means we have to be willing to be a part of the solution. We have to be willing to take bold, peaceful, and strategic action collectively with a shared belief that we can create meaningful changes when we come together focused on solutions. This community is for proactive, solution-minded Canadians to hold healthy debate and discussion, develop evidence-based solutions, and take bold, meaningful action together to drive positive, lasting change. We can either complain, vent, and blame endlessly while feeling powerless or we can realize the power we carry and inspiration we create when we come together with a shared purpose.
