The content creator, who goes by Candilicious and lives in Singapore, abandoned popular apps like Hinge and Bumble to focus on corporate networking platforms to find her soulmate.
'Yes -that's right. This week I am going to be crawling LinkedIn in Singapore to find my next date,' she said in the video with over 80,000 views.
Some praised her decision as 'Queen behavior' and 'a legend' in comments, while others expressed less confidence.
Incredibly unprofessional.. and makes women look bad, one wrote.
Precisely the reason I no longer use LinkedIn except for the courses which are excellent. No contacts, no profile, no personal info at all, the second commented.
I guess if you're ugly, you try everything? someone asked.
Stop abusing Linked In! It's for business professionals not for hussies to get their rocks off!!! another replied.
Stop using it for dating. You will spoil this business platform for people who actually use it for its purpose which is doing business, one said.
Unbothered by the criticism, the content creator responded in a follow-up video, explaining why LinkedIn was the best site to find love.
Candilicious emphasized that the app's unique filters set it apart from the competition, saying, 'Number one I can filter for education - MBA baby!'
LinkedIn's filtering feature allows users to find potential suitors based on industry, such as doctors, lawyers, or finance professionals, enhancing their chances of finding suitable partners.
This feature is crucial, as noted by the content creator.
"I'm unable to filter by height but at least there are very good-looking photos that I can do some height analysis on," she joked.
Following her clarification, many people praised TikToker as 'smart' and 'genius' in the comments.
Some even shared their own promising LinkedIn love stories, with one commenting: I checked my then-boyfriend's LinkedIn page after we met through Tinder. We are married now, LOL.
I met my boyfriend on LinkedIn haha haha, one user shared.
