So my LinkedIn account has been restricted…again! But this time I haven’t been banned. My engagement is just non-existent, i.e. I’m getting 1 like per post because my content is not being pushed for whatever reason. Doesn’t really make sense for an account with 25k+ followers, so a contact at LinkedIn is looking into it for me. But the show must go on in the meantime, and I need help from you Beyond in the form of likes, reposts and comments on my posts for the week. This is how I am able to get the attention of employers to provide more opportunities for the community, so your engagement means A LOT…no pressure (:
