A new wave of self -proclaimed “mentors” is carrying on LinkedIn – Fong (Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google) companies promise job -seikings golden opportunities in companies, branding to cheat job seekers, and fake mentarship programs that eventually explain their dictatorship. As wide in a viral redit post, these so-called masters often posted pictures of themselves wearing ‘fang-branded goods or posed in company offices’ with vague inspiring messages. Their final goal, critics say, is not to help but for profit.
After keeping an eye on many of these affected people, a clear pattern emerged. His playbook follows five forecasted stages:
Hook: They provide “free” resume review or referral-book a 15-minute session.
Flattery: During the call, they bathe with praise to the candidates, but do not give any actionable response.
Ask: They begging for 5-star ratings and bright admiration.
Axis: After stacking 50+ shiny reviews from free sessions, they begin to charge $ 1,000+ for consultation for 30 minutes, marketing themselves as “5-stars rated by 50+ users”. Hunt? Those reviews came from free sessions.
Benefit: They mudge the frustration, hunting the job seekers who believe that they are getting internal guidance. In fact, they are being scammed by someone whose career cannot be as solid as they claim.
To make cases worse, they work in the affected packs, prefer, repost, and hyping to increase the credibility of each other and expand their access.
The referral should be organic – a support of one’s capacity, not an object for sale. Nevertheless, this growing trend on LinkedIn is changing real job seekers in a market of deception.
The post became increasingly viral, provoking a series of reactions from social media users.
One user wrote, “Yes, this dirt is getting out of hand. I know that a friend who spam about five positions about random dirt. Also, there are 4000 charged people for an hour. I don’t think they make 4000 for one hour in their real job.”
Another said: “This is the boy on LinkedIn who keeps posting for referral and tells people that they are interested.
Equality for forced bribe is supernatural. ,
Another said: “I have stopped using LinkedIn. It is only full of these spam positions. There is nothing of the value.
On the other hand, Indian youth have created idols of these affected people and are busy promoting them rather than manufacturing their careers. Most of these are students who have no information about how things work in corporates, and the remaining witch companies have slogors who make a regular posts as to how some impressive sheets are best and perhaps 500 RS for it. ,
