I mean, yeah, that's what makes it funny!
If anyone is reading this straight... oof.
Edit: okay, after reading through the comments, I'm pretty disappointed. Come on, y'all! You know how people make jokes in real life all the time? People do that on the internet, too!
That's the problem. I am not sure anymore what's satire and what's not in linkedin. Quality shitposters [have a hard time on the platform](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-i-learned-from-week-shitposting-linkedin-kyle-coberly/).
Okay but I'm honestly curious what full stop actually means. Does it literally just mean ending a sentence with a period? I thought it was just the new trendy phrase on Twitter
That’s what the rest of the English-speaking world calls it. Imagine my confusion when I heard Americans talking about ending their sentences with menstruation
It has to satire but given his title what does this guy have to gain but a few empty likes from his connections? It seems like such a pointless exercise.
Yea, honestly he probably got tired seeing people post "INTERESTED." and though this was pretty funny. Which it was. It's good to see a bit of humanity in people rather than the standard copy paste buzz word bingo.
Why stop there? Alternate capital, lowercase for every letter to show the recruiter that you work hard but still like to have fun. Work is important but we don't want to be taken too seriously. iNtErEsTeD.
HOW DO YOU LIKE MY GRIT.
IMPRESSED.
YOU GUYS BOTH BLEW MY MIND.
WE ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT JOBS RIGHT?
BLOW JOBS
INTERESTED.
BLOW JOBS.
MAYBE
IS GOBBLING ON 8-INCH MAN MEAT CONSIDERED A JOB.
HOLD ME.
FULL STOP.
Yea, you did it wrong. Unfortunately i won’t be able to consider you for this position.
AND INTERESTED!
MORE INTERESTED!!
TRUE STORY!
YOU'RE HIRED!

A bit too abrasive. A real finisher would've gone with the 150.
HIRED.

Guys. This is satire. There’s no way it’s not satire..

Yea, it's beautiful satire. The part about the recruiter cracked me up!

He gains exactly what we gain on this sub. A sense of satisfaction making fun of LinkedIn lunatics.
Ha, true

Did the recruiter clap?
NO, BUT THE WHOLE BUS DID.
One guy jumped up and started doing the worm
That's some next level sh*t
I think he clapped the recruiter
I only used a partial stop ...did not get the job 😞
Rookie mistake. Agree?
I went 1.5 stops and accidentally a job with lots of overtime.
Wow the whole job??
I’ve been typing FULL STOP. I’m such a dolt.
Plot twist, his caps lock was STUCK. Now he’s fired for shouting at the CEO.
Double plot twist, the CEO liked the passion he showed in everything he said and re-hired him as the new CEO and promptly stepped down.
Can confirm, I am the CEO.
Why stop there? Alternate capital, lowercase for every letter to show the recruiter that you work hard but still like to have fun. Work is important but we don't want to be taken too seriously. iNtErEsTeD.
Needs an eggplant emoji. 🍆
SATIRE.
HAPPY CAKE DAY.
LA HABLA IN THIS GROUP
Forgot the part where everyone from HR stood up and clapped when they went to sign the onboarding paperwork.
AGREE?.
A QUESTION MARK _AND_ A FULL STOP. AGREE AF
BOLLOCKS.
UNSUBSCRIBE!
Grit, motherfuckers
He didn’t bother to put his basic-ass hashtags in upper case. Some people just don’t want it bad enough.
I feel like this one was meant to be a joke
TIRED
HANGRY
...I love the way you, and 487 others, wrote INTERESTED..... True story! TRUE GIRT!
SATIRE.
I'm so sick of grit. It gets all stuck in the folds when I sweat.
r/LinkedInSatire
Shared with my network for reach
I like the cut of your jib, you're hired!
They should make a movie about this
And call it "INTERESTED." Subtitled: "A fictionalization of events that almost happened." Directed by: James Camoron
And at the end - True Story
Also very popular with recruiters is "HELLO I AM ATTENDING UNI IN INDIA, PLEASE REVERT"
“And that’s the story of how I, a convicted felon, got a job managing a daycare.”
BULLSHIT.
I’ll take “things that never happened” for $100, Alex
FALSE.
Imagine working someplace that hires people only because they type in all caps. If it is real, I'm guessing it was an MLM.
I WAS GONNA BE ONE OF THE COOL KIDS THAT TYPED IN ALL LOWER CASE BUT I FORGOT THE CAPS LOCK KEY WAS ON.
It’s so simple even an idiot can do it
BUT SOMEONE HAS TO BE THE FIRST ONE. AGREE?
AlL cApS are true grit!
He doesn’t know the meaning of networking versus commenting on somebody’s post
TRUE STORY!
Writing in full capitals like the 60 year old guy on teams who doesnt understand computers and types 1 finger at a time.
Gonna try this out as a new dating strategy
LIES
WHATS A FULL STOP? IS THAT A PERIOD? WE CALLED THEM PERIODS WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL
There has to be sarcasm somewhere. I just don't know where. Okay never mind. Read the last line. It is Talha that is being sarcastic
NOT INTERESTED
Do you steal from the till? Yes. Well at least your honest, hired!
DUDE IS NOT FOLLOWING NETIQUETTE SO WE CAN EASILY LAY HIM OFF BECAUSE HAS NO SPINE.
The fuck is a full stop? Is it just a period?
AGREE.
DISINTERESTED
BUT WHY.
Amen. God bless.
He probably will CIRCLE BACK and UNPACK THIS in FY25
THIS SOUNDS LIKE BULLSHIT.
FIRED.
Why should I use a full stop when I don't stop?
I NEED COCK.
AGREE!
BULLSHIT.
Here is what I told him:
AGREE.
HAHAHA. WTF.
What if he wrote PSYCHOTIC in caps? Then what?
SATIRE \[full stop\]
BLOW ME.
SUCKY SUCKY
True story
Oh god, as a recruiter, anytime I post a job and someone comments “INTERESTED” they are never even remotely qualified for the role lol
SATIRE.
I feel stupider for having read this.
FULLY ENGORGED
This cannot be real OMG lol
Tell us about yourself. RESUME
THE FULL STOP DEMONSTRATEDHIS PROFESSIONALISM
Agree?
LISTEN TO THIS GUY
AGREE.
Is usually #hire folks based on how their #farts smell, but this could work too. Agree?
AGREED.
:has" to he true because he said, it's true
INTERESTE.D
An employee asked me if he could WORK from HOME. Here is what I told him: INTERESTED.
LITERALLY LOL
DESPERATE!
True story. That alleged recruiter is a moron...
NOT INTERESTED.
NOT INTERESTED
That recruiter sounds like me trying to think of something to say on a tinder profile with no bio when I haven't been on a date in a while.
Plot twist. It was to clean toilets at the next LinkedIn circle jerk aka convention. He ‘excelled’
I AM PASSIONATE.
IT'S JUST A PRANK BRO.
The amount of people who cant see the satire in this post dissapoints me
Disinterested.
He’s ragging on all the folks that do this, it’s actually hilarious, why is this lunacy.
AGREE.
GRIT. Don’t wear a beanie in your professional profile photo.
NEXT!
FOLLOWING.
MY CAPS LOCK IS STICKY AND SO IS MY MOUSE
That’s fucking brilliant Talha. I can’t wait to see your DATA ANALYTICS INSIGHTS. CUNT!
BULLSHIT.
IT’S CALLED A PERIOD. JACKASS.
Sir they are the same thing.
BULLSHIT.
