Hi everyone!! I'm new here! Just want to say I love seeing how kind and helpful everyone seems to be so far. I'm actively seeking a new employer since I'm a contractor now...no, subcontractor. I'm such an amazing asset to my clients and they regularly sing my praise. However, my role was always designed to be a contracted position. I feel like I've exhausted my options on LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, ect.. I see the same jobs every day. Any ideas how to search for a career outside of job boards? TIA

I've been trying to expand my professional network by attending networking events and also reaching out direct to suggested connections at companies I'm interested in. I have a dream company I want to work for someday and recently LI suggested I connect with their Talent Acquisition Manager. I introduced myself and expressed my appreciation for the work she was doing, welcomed any conversations if an HR role came available. Well 2 hours later I received a message from their recruiter about an HRBP position that was becoming available but not posted yet. Sometimes you just have to go for it!
