3 thoughts on “How To Navigate the Dark Side of LinkedIn

  1. LinkedIn like all social networks can definitely impact mental health. Comparison is hard to deal with especially when you’re about to graduate. Acknowledging that social media is a highlight reel and taking breaks can both be very helpful. Thanks for your insight on this topic!

  2. I found this piece very insightful. I agree with what you were saying about LinkedIn being intimidating when you first start to use the platform. I remember when I first set up my LinkedIn profile I didn’t think I was ever going to use the social media app because it was too professional for my career goals. However, now that I am about to graduate, I have found myself using the platform almost daily. Whether I am updating my own profile or looking at my connections posts, I do enjoy using the platform.

  3. Hi Marcella! What a creative post! I honestly never really thought about the dark side of LinkedIn, but your points definitely resonate with me! I think it’s fun to see what former and present classmates are up to, but yes sometimes it does feel like a competition. I do compare myself, but I’m to try not to as much. Thank you for sharing!
