Which, in some methods, feels just a little inauthentic.

Then once more, your posts possible received’t get consideration in case your opinions are garbage, so there’s some want for authentic considering on high of those prompts. But it surely does appear to be this might get misused by some to enhance their standing, with much less precise analysis and expertise required to make it appear like you recognize what you’re speaking about.
However both approach, it would assist LinkedIn to extend engagement, which remains at record high levels, because the platform continues to develop.
Perhaps, from LinkedIn’s perspective, that’s sufficient of a win in itself – and when coupled with the necessity for authentic perception to actually separate your self from the gang, it’ll be hoping that that might be sufficient to weed out the fakers within the app.
