Is being asked for your resume on LinkedIn a red flag?

I am a software engineer and get lots of recruiter messages advertising various openings. Sometimes they say, “If interested, please reply with your resume and contact information.” I'm thinking, “My LinkedIn profile is exactly what will be on my resume, can you not just download a PDF of it from LinkedIn?”.

Hate work? Automate it!

Hey all, if i'm honest, i'm very lazy. that's why i want to automate as much of my boring stuff as possible and have built this tool to help everyone else do the same. Hope you can use it too to get rid of some of the annoying tasks you do. It's entirely free to use, all i'd ask for is some feedback 🙂 https://www.producthunt.com/posts/bardeen

If you’re so desperate for workers…

…you’d think the boss would show up for an interview. I only got 5 emails over the past three days through the company’s automated system reminding me about it. I show up and I’m told that person isn’t here, they’ll take my name and phone and get back to me. This is a business that has signage up the wazoo about how they’re hiring. I felt like my time was completely wasted and it doesn’t exactly give me much confidence that this place is managed well. They gave me some excuse about how it’s their “automated system” but if they’re not going to use it why do they have it? One of the main reasons I applied there was because they tout an easy hiring process.

Entire restaurant staff quits, owners whine on FB. Not involved in this at all, but I saw it on the news and wanted to share.
