Any crazy hacks for getting an interview? I'm not talking about mass applying to 20+ jobs per day. Give me the most unhinged, feral things you've done to get an interview.

It’s definitely helped me!

I had an interview with a talent acquisition manager who said they would move me forward, but they ended up ghosting me🫣 so, I messaged a few of the company's leadership on LinkedIn and they actually responded. I didn't mention my experience with the recruiter; I just expressed my interest. I had an interview with the hiring manager the next day and was offered the job a few weeks later. I didn't realize how risky this was at the time, but it served me well. Unfortunately, I feel as though ppl don't respond to linkedin messages from randoms as much as they used to. This was years ago

Circling back. I'm gonna continue testing this theory, but I'm feeling as though the more senior, the more likely they are to answer. I'm talking Head of XYZ, Managing Director, etc. In my experience, senior directors and below are less likely to respond.
