YMMV I guess, but among the thousands of applications I've submitted looking for work, LinkedIn helped exactly buttkiss percent. The job search system is completely broken, and a terrible platform like LinkedIn isn't helping.

First - I love the word buttkiss.

And a friendly note - You probably meant to use the word "bupkis" which is the yiddish word for 'nothing' or 'nonsense'

You're right.

I'm gonna keep saying buttkiss though.
