Are LinkedIn Posts Really Necessary!?

So as everyone here knows, LinkedIn is the oasis for flexing about how you just accepted aSAorFT在投资银行提供。我很想看到在LinkedIn上发布合法的好处,说您接受了职位。我接受SA2022 at a solidMMbank but feel like even just posting aboutSA很奇怪,因为这并不重要,除非我得到FToffer. The only thing that comes to mind is to keep everyone in your network aware of where you are going to be so you don't have to send out 100+ emails saying this to everyone. Besides that, is it worth posting or should I just put it in my Bio? To be clear, I totally support people showing off their accomplishments... That is a good thing for sure!! I just feel like I don't want to come across as bragging and all and tbh, those people in my network that have had a real impact on my recruitment journey I messaged them privately to have a more meaningful discussion.

想听听您对此的所有想法。谢谢!

不,10000000%不需要。不要误会我的意思,我很高兴人们对自己降落的角色感到高兴,但是在我看来,发表其中一篇文章看起来很不专业。如果您真的很谦虚地收到要约,那么您就不会发布有关该要约的信息 - 如果您发表了一个大型公开帖子并声称自己谦卑地收到要约,那么您只是告诉所有人,您不明白这意味着什么要谦虚。

Treat the offer like a professional - you don't see the most successful individuals making these posts so you shouldn't either. To me it just screams "validate me based on the internship/job that I have bc I don't have enough self confidence to know what I'm worth beyond the interactions on my linked in post". Just a tough look overall. Don't even get me started on the summer insight posts…..

同样,不要觉得没有意见,除了喜欢的人以外的所有人

To be honest for me it was always nice to catch up with some former colleagues that sent out some congratulations via DM everytime I updated my LinkedIn. That's the reason I do it

They make my fucking blood boil. They honestly sound like a professional athlete signing speech at times. "I am very excited to announce that I will bestarting a summer internship在xxx“。他妈的。关于完成大学学士学位,标记大学以及他们将要开始的公司。提升。如果有人实习在我的公司做到这一点,我已经对自己作为一个人的样子有一个预先想象的观念。谦虚,什么也不说。记住 - 真实Gs movein silence, like lasagna.

Stop posting so much on LinkedIn and social media, generally. At the end of the day, no one gives a damn.

Take that time and spend it onWSOinstead :)

只有当您的祖母也在LinkedIn上时,这是有必要的,这是她唯一能听到孙子的成就的乳清。如果没有,请远离它,因为在她旁边没有其他人会屎。

Agreed they are cringy, and to all you analysts, they aren't going to stop, especially once you get to business school age and let everyone know you are going to Booth (bummer about HBS).

One reality I do think about though is that many of these are from people who come from more difficult backgrounds. 1st generation college grads, etc, that really make it a point of pride. I honestly feel that in these cases it's less braggy (though it's def still a little bit) and actual pride in achievement as opposed to the Exeter - Dartmouth - Kellogg graduate who grew up in Rye and is "announcing" that she convertedMcKinsey into Venture Capital.

Just update your position and call it a day.

If you wanna acknowledge the people that helped you get where you are, then send them a personalized email or written thank you note. Means a lot more to them and is a lot less cringe.

恭喜这份工作!

I think I did this right

The most successful professionals, who arent public figures whom people expect an online presence (such Bill Gates), don't post anything on LinkedIn.

Have heard some takes that posting shows the firm you're excited to join and willing to announce publicly. Ready for the MS

It won't come across as bragging since you only got into aMMbank.
