Do You Even LinkedIn? | Episode 42

What is the line between building your brand and just… being annoying?

In this episode, Lola and Mamuna dive into the evolving world of LinkedIn — from professional resume archive to personality-powered feed. Whether you're quietly job hunting, loudly repping yourself, or silently judging other people’s posts, this episode is for you.

We break down:

💼 Can you still get hired without a personal brand?
🔍 What hiring managers really look at on LinkedIn
🧠 Why representation ≠ oversharing (but a little celebration never hurts)
🤖 The AI arms race: job screeners are crawling your LinkedIn — are you ready?
🔥 When LinkedIn posts go too far: trolls, tone, and getting yourself fired
🌍 Cultural tensions in showing off: British modesty, Nigerian pride, American hustle

Whether you're posting to be seen, scrolling to learn, or staying silent and strategic — your LinkedIn is saying something. Are you telling the story you want?
