Maybe it could have been worded better. There is a point though.
When you see LinkedIn post from someone who lost their job, or who are simply looking for jobs, then the technical people are often much better at selling themselfs. Frequently you'll see someone who is looking for an engineering job post qualification, experience, salary range, desired location and what they can bring to a company. We still see them having interviews lined up within hours. For online marketing it's often "I lost my job at so and so. Do your thing network", and basically crickets, or people commenting that they'll share the post.
