I work for a SaaS company. Sourcing senior devs in this tight market has been brutal. Any underrated LinkedIn hacks to find passive candidates who actually respond? My pipeline's drying up.

Less about hacks, more about relevance. Short, specific, human messages outperform templates. Also helps to source beyond LinkedIn (GitHub, communities, referrals).

What are your pain points exactly? Is it more about candidates not reflecting what the hiring manager expects for the pay?

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
