I have suffered a decrease in profile rank by 16%. How on earth will I be employed now?

What rank? You mean the profile views rank that directly correlates with your activity on LinkedIn that actually doesn't matter that much?

The only rank that might actually matter is the quality rank. I've reached "All-Star" without having to do anything, LinkedIn ratings mean very little.

Profile rank being misrepresentative of my qualities as an individual is exactly what I was getting at. Regardless, I appreciate your thoughts.
