I am in job searching mode, given what LinkedIn has become is still a good platform to post for looking new roles? I see people with the green open to work for months and months…..

I know of a platform where you can apply for jobs, learn about what might come in the interviews and also see company ratings, culture, WLBetc.

Yup the standard job boards and networking is the way to go!

Indeed or referrals are best

Every opportunity I’ve landed has been through the help of LI… now even though you may see that some folks profile showing the “open to work” sign posted for months doesn’t mean that the same will happen to you… you also have to take into consideration what folks are doing behind the scenes (I.e. are they reaching out to recruiters, networking etc., or just sitting back hoping that when they turn on the green light that’ll be enough) so take those scenarios into account. All the best with your search!

Linkedin is helpful for keeping a digital Rolodex. Look on LinkedIn and message people you know from your previous companies or companies you’re interested in to see if their teams are hiring or know of other places with job openings. Apply on LinkedIn, Glassdoor and Indeed.

I found my current role through the LI job board and got my previous role by reaching out to a recruiter via LI. My wife was reached out to by a few headhunters as well through LI. It’s good to keep a strong network of recruiters handy in case you decide to start looking again.

HRBP, I found my current role within a week of me changing my work status on LinkedIn. And like anything else in this digital age, everyone has their luck. I have seen people having more luck landing a job with Glassdoor or indeed. And I’ve seen people land jobs either by applying on LinkedIn, or changing their work status (or through a referral on LinkedIn). And the end of the day, if I were you, I would scale my chances of getting a job by applying on all major job boards.

Honestly mine has been up since July and I haven’t found a new sales position yet but hopefully that changes soon.

💕 thank you so much ☺️

Moving to SF this summer (best bet is July) for a full-time contract and I’m looking for a place downtown to move in, preferrably the 94108 zone (terribly sorry for talking in ZIP codes instead of neighborhood names as I’m relocating here all the way from Europe and the whole thing seems fairly new to me). Any advice on how to start my search, any sites/groups/forums I should keep an eye on, any particular watch-out, or any leads you’d love to drop? Appreciate every bit of help 🙏

Just a friendly reminder that all of your leadership getting ‘recognized’ on LI by a third party like CRN or Forbes like ‘best in channel’ or ‘best place to work’, etc. your company PAID for those. It’s paid advertisements. No one was actually recognized like you’d think lol and to me, that is massive cringe. Especially when it gets tons of congratulations and likes. It’s silly!
