Do you have the word "associate" in your resume?

Messages are $4 each for the lite plan. Scammers can't afford that.
Anyone paying that is a scammer. That it exists and is used proves that paying to spam pays off. It might way off way, way more for LinkedIn than for anyone else, but that people keep doing it, proves that paying to spam is seen as worthwhile.
How are they scamming and how is what their dojng profitable enough to make it with $4 a shot?

Of course you set your zip code, which gives your location. Everyone's profile has a location
Right, and THAT is what results in all recruiters doing things that aren't local. My zip code doesn't seem to make anything change with recruiters.
How is profitable for them to pay $4 for just a lead for someone non local. Unless you are accepting these people as connections

Lol, well I do, I guess I should have gone for the full MCSE after all. But it seems to me that there are so few LinkedIn job postings in a 200km radius of my location that they just list everything.

ound of interviews for a sysadmin position at GitLab. However, this has fueled me into starting an active job search. However, I'm not quite sure how to start it.
I would love to assist. Please send me your resume and I can see what openings I currently have.
