[QUOTE="ChantelleTen, post: 78831, member: 11391"] It's very much like it or lump it, I think that some "influencers" are genuinely helpful and offer free resources to help people in their TC journey, and the advice they offer in some cases is invaluable. However, there are some people that charge vulnerable and in some situations desperate aspiring trainees for mediocre content (it is this side of the coin that I can't stand personally). In general, I don't believe they do too much harm. the "humble-brag" issue is one that is very prevalent on LinkedIn and isn't novel, unfortunately, but I think that this is a problem coming from a small minority of people. My way of navigating this is to look past the initial impressions made and actually see what they're saying and the help they're offering. I've had some brilliant (and free!) help from some of these well known legal influencers (if that's what we're calling them). Got to choose to view things positively while on this TC journey otherwise you will be absolutely drained by it all :) [/QUOTE]
