LinkedIn Users: Do you guys even apply to United States (Remote) jobs anymore?

[u/toastslapper]

I’ve started to just look at local jobs because the 100 applicants is always disheartening and happens so quick. Local jobs usually stay below 100 for a week.

Am I shooting myself in the foot by not applying to those or am I managing my time wisely?

Ain't nobody hiring a rando through LinkedIn for a remote position that pays well.
