Getting back into the platform after a long break I really didn’t want to log back into LinkedIn. It felt like walking into a party where everyone is wearing a suit and trying too hard to seem like they’re having the most productive day of their lives. But since I’ve been looking at the job…
The Email That Ruined My Saturday I was sitting at home, drinking lukewarm coffee, when that email notification popped up.

Trying to keep my professional history updated I really thought updating my LinkedIn profile would be a simple task of copy-pasting a few lines from my resume. It started on a Tuesday night after I saw someone I used to work with post about their move to a new company—it was one of those announcements…
