Why Do People Say "ex-google" or "ex-stripe" in their LI profile titles?
Save the energy and just put "🤡", thx. TC: 200k YOE: 4 #gtfo
Because they can’t move on from their ex
🤣🤣🤣
ex-diaper baby
Ex-sperm
No. It's a website for marketing themselves. Just because you think it's bad doesn't mean everyone should stop.
They didn't ask to stop... Just pointing out that it's cringe
It’s cringe but it helps people market themselves so who am I to care. If they start needless telling me then I’m annoyed.
Prestige
When people go to a less prestigious place for more money, they include their old prestigious company.
What about people who go to more prestigious place and still mention their less prestigious "ex-"?
@tree1g - I have rarely seen that . Imagine saying Currently at Apple , ex- Walmart
So people 🪑 🍆
I really I don’t understand this
Ex-infant, ex-HighSchoolGraduate, ex-SATtaker, ex-H1Bapplicant, ex-JobHunter
😂… future - Retiree
I'm genuinely curious as well. Is that supposed to help with getting more professional opportunities? Does that help with being discovered with LinkedIn search?
You know why.
