Job hunting is exhausting — searching for open positions, crafting a resume for each, filling out application forms and then potentially never hearing back.

How many applications can you submit each day? Less than 10 max, I’d say

What you want to do instead is called job fishing

You want to put some enticing bait out there, and wait for the job to come to you

How many views can you get each day? Potentially thousands!

Did you know there are over 870,000 recruiters on LinkedIn actively looking for candidates? They may not all be searching for someone with your experience, but common sense still says that there are still hundreds, maybe thousands of recruiters looking for someone like you every day

What’s easier, hunting for that perfect role…
Or letting that perfect role come to you?

Where to go job fishing

LinkedIn is the body of water you want to be fishing in!

When looking for a Software Engineer, recruiters will search LinkedIn based off the specific frameworks and languages their current team uses. You want to show up in as many of these searches as possible, and preferably at the top of the list
