CORPORATE QUEEN We’ve done a deep dive into Jacqui from MAFS’ LinkedIn and what the actual fuck
BY: Kartya Vucetic
You know, it’s a rare day when I thank the universe for giving me the life experience of having previously worked corporate. After all, there really isn’t much that’s glamorous about LinkedIn, fax printers and 1am finish times.
But that is until today.
Because lucky for all of us now, my brief stint in the corporate world means that LinkedIn is my bitch. And as it turns out, it looks like it’s Jacqui’s from MAFS, too.
It didn’t take long for us to find her profile. And let me tell you, what a profile it is. It appears that Jacqui loves her LinkedIn so much, that she went to the trouble of matching her wedding dress to the brand logo colours. LOL.
We’ve done the entire deep dive into it and will be summarising it here for your convenience. I’ll also give you fair warning that as far as LinkedIn profiles go, this one’s a doozy.
A little snapshot into Jacqui’s LinkedIn profile
#5: She’s been a lawyer AND investment analyst for nearly 6 years, at multiple unnamed companies.
Let’s cut the shit. This is so incredibly broad that doubts are already being cast about what she actually does. As someone who comes from a law background, I can tell you that nobody – no, not even Jacqui – has enough time to perform both duties, for multiple companies. My guess is that she’s worked contracts on-off for the past few years, but thought it was more impressive to say it this way.
#4: She went to Harvard Business School (online).
This sounds impressive, and that’s because it’s meant to. But the true caveat here lies in the online aspect. Anyone who’s studied a law or business degree at university will be familiar with this program. It’s essentially a paid for, short term course – a bit like TAFE really, but for wankers.
Now, that’s not to say that it isn’t impressive at all. We love an educated queen. But all I’ll say is that we can’t get mixed up between going to Harvard, and doing a Harvard online course. They are two entirely different things.
#3: She’s listed as an Etsy Star Seller.
Okay, so this one is pretty fucking rogue. I reckon I could count on one hand the number of Etsy sellers that actually have a LinkedIn profile. It feels out of place with every other award and skill she’s given herself. Perhaps the funniest part of it is that she’s spelled Etsy wrong on her profile.
I’ve never heard of ESTY? Lol.
We did, however, hear her mention her ‘passive income stream’ on one of this week’s episodes. And while I initially assumed it might be from the stock market, it looks like good ol’ Jacqui might also slinging papier mache on the side. That is, when she isn’t doing her multiple jobs for multiple companies.
#2: She’s listed 92 skills on her LinkedIn profile.
This feels a little overkill
I think it was around here that I started to reel. My favourite one she’s listed, hands down, has got to be her ‘great personality’. You know, I’m quickly learning from MAFS that the more you claim something to be true, the less people tend to believe it. It’s actually made me start to question how many skills LinkedIn allows you to click, because surely she’s exhausted most of the options. Oh well, I guess we already knew that she was a multi-talented lass.
#1: 2006 Time Person of the Year
I’m gasping rn
Okay, so this is insane. For context, in 2006, the Time Person of the Year was titled ‘You’. It was designed to recognise the millions of people around the world who contribute to user-generated content on social media platforms like Youtube and MySpace (while it existed). And despite probably never having posted anything on social media in 2006 (she was 10 years old at the time), Jacqui has also decided to list this as one of her top achievements.
Haters will say she’s joking. But after a few episodes of seeing her on MAFS, I just know this woman thought she was the smartest cookie of them all.

I am sorry but l think she is a liar about her careers, too needy, embarrassing to others and to be honest not the full shilling
I can’t believe they put someone who needs extensive therapy on the show.
No way she’s a lawyer. She has no reasoning ability. Cries when spoken to. How could she get through one court appearance. Yes. I studied law.
