I've been job hunting for a few months now and I've noticed that I often apply to jobs that aren't realistic matches for my skills and experience. I've been trying to figure out a better way to evaluate LinkedIn job postings before I invest time in applying. Some common issues I've encountered include mismatches in the tech stack, hidden location requirements, unrealistic experience expectations, companies reposting old listings, and salaries that are significantly below my target. I'm curious if anyone has a specific checklist or scoring system they use to determine if a job is worth applying for. I've started skimming for red flags within the first 30 seconds, like if the tech stack is completely off or if they're asking for 8 years of experience for entry-level pay. Any tips would be appreciated!
