Itโ€™s going to be so ironic if theyโ€™d use LinkedIn to hunt for new roles !

Lol right?
I forgot who posted it, maybe @Pachacuti? But a lot the recent layoff posts feel like thinly veiled content farming. This is coming from someone who was recently laid off...

I donโ€™t remember posting anything like that but it would be ironic.

After I made a layoff post, I got spammed with messages from MLMs and overpriced life insurance vendors. Literally zero messages from anyone at a legitimate company.

So cringe.

Does the whole recruitment market/business model feel fractured?

It doesโ€ฆI think theyโ€™re dealing with the same demographic hiring pressures, and the overall quality has tanked.

Itโ€™s just something Iโ€™ve noticed.

I know very minimal about the recruiting space, but from my experience itโ€™s been pretty shitty.

Unauthentic recruiters, minimal follow up, etc etc.

Looks like they slipped it in here but no mention of headcount.

Hopefully it's not as many as anticipated.

That seems high - I would also want to see this article. If so, that's terrible news. Despite my recent dogshit experience with recruiters, if this is true, I wish them a speedy recovery.

That article linked is buried behind a paywall so I couldn't dig deeper unfortunately.

Funny how that happens. The best there is a "undisclosed" amount in the bullet points of all companies doing layoffs.

No clue unfortunately. Hopefully the numbers are not that high and the poster clarifies.

So based purely on the "open to work" posts I saw on LI today - looks like the LI layoffs were talent acquistion, AKA recruiters.
Not sure of the number.

Yeah, it is going to be a fun rebalancing as everyone looks to cut costs across the board. There is still a lot of hiring, my company included, but it is getting a little slimmer out there
