Do you get more jobs from applying or just reaching out with your portfolio to places you like even if they don’t have a posting? And do you reach out to the CD or someone your level?

Plan B, I've never gotten jobs by just applying and never needed a cover letter except for an internship. The co's wanna know what you can do for them and I'll reach out via recruiter or if my former boss knows a decision maker they can introduce me to.

Yep. Starting freelance opened more doors to me when I had no connections. For creatives a lot of places aren't direct hire situations.

Networking always

I recently had an interview with a very promising pre-IPO company in the AI/ML space for a SE leadership position. The interview feedback was better than I expected, but with a twist. They have already given the offer to someone else, but they still want to bring me on board and they asked me what I would like to do. I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?
