Guess this depends a lot on your location, field of work, and your years of experience.

Last two jobs I got because of linkedin connections contacting me through it. They never had my email/number but they did have my linkedin.

The job search functionality (and applying through linkedin) is shit and I just use it to see what's out there and was applying on through company websites directly or via email.

Stopped giving random recruiters my CV and details via linkedin chat years ago because I started suspecting that they are just bots with linkedin premium.

I'm planning to ditch linkedin soon. Already removed most of my details except for last and current job. It used to be helpful when I was at the beginning of my career but now I feel like I could possibly find a job the old fashion way via direct contacting (this isn't always available for every job but I honestly don't care where I work).
