I always see the same names on job postings, mainly on LinkedIn. Do you have any tips or alternative places to look for a fresh perspective or more interesting tech job opportunities?

Definitely feel this. I’ve had better luck poking around GitHub project contributors, Slack communities, and even Substack job boards. You get a more human vibe than from the same recycled LinkedIn listings.

I think as the new year kicks off , new openings will come up

Great question. In addition to LinkedIn, check out Otta, Pallet, and Wellfound (formerly AngelList). Also—don’t underestimate warm intros in niche Slack groups or via newsletters like Workweek, FemTech Insider, or People First Jobs. That’s where the “off-market” roles live.

Why are engineers so difficult to recruit? Sometimes they make me feel stupid lol.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.
