Once upon a time, LinkedIn was a professional resource used to virtually track our career trajectories. It was an easy way to make connections with fellow professionals and allow companies to check out where you’re working and what you’ve accomplished recently. It’s not technically a social media site, however somewhere along the line, it started transitioning into a place where successful (we’ll use that word generously) people decided to start flaunting their wealth and sharing incredibly cringey posts…
That’s where The State of LinkedIn Twitter account comes into play. The page calls the site “a breeding ground for lies & brown-nosing”, so down below, we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious tweets exposing false and ridiculous posts from LinkedIn that might give you secondhand embarrassment. Keep reading to also find interviews we were lucky enough to receive from the creator of The State of LinkedIn and LinkedIn Business Strategist, Salina Yeung.
Be sure to upvote the posts you find most atrocious, and let us know in the comments if you’ve ever encountered cringey or downright false claims on LinkedIn. Then, if you’d like to check out another Bored Panda article detailing what a cesspool LinkedIn has become in recent years, you can find our last post featuring The State of LinkedIn right here!
