Best websites to job hunt?

[Swaggod9k]

So far zip recruiter has been getting me way more interviews than indeed...

Fuk indeed.

How is glassdoor?

Any other good job hunting sites?

Should I create a linked in account, and just start messaging fools?

[JuicedMayhem]

Grindr

Linkedin can be good if you know how to game the system..

Pay for premium, review key word searches for the job you want, add key words to your resume/cover letter = profit. This will increase your odds of getting your resume past HRs trash bin and onto a hiring managers desk.



...but LOL at using job sites or recruiters. Your next job should come from your network over beer or golf. If it isnt, you are probably doing it wrong. The best jobs NEVER hit a website or recruiters desk.

Get back in your cage wagie.


The best jobs are the ones you create with your own business.

Well you need a wage to have the resources to start a business so ......

Just deposit money into your bank account, any other way and you're doing it wrong.

Linkedin/thread

I'm interviewing with 7 companies after having job hunted on Linkedin for the past month

this

all the other major ones like Indeed are also good but what is posted there will be on Linkedin and vice versa


LinkedIn is heavy on the tech with its algos for matching jobs and profiles

[atgbrahsrs]

Well a lot of them do, but the position has always been filled prior to it hitting the website. They just throw it on the website to follow company protocol and to check a box.

I agree 100 percent with what you're saying though.

and this

**** the corpie life and **** the non-meritocratic fields like Finance

fuaark, brb work is 100% showing you are visible and nut hugging

Reach out to recruiters on LinkedIn directly like a professional. Unless you are looking for factory or fast food work.

LOL...The vast majority of "Entrepreneurs" have no clue what they are doing, dont make any money and end up in an early grave. The majority that find success are the ones that fall into it...

The company I work for has grown through acquisition and I can say with 100% certainty that the owners of these small to mid sixed businesses have no clue what they are doing. They cant/dont build strategy, cant sell their products, cant write a real business plan. We buy them while they are fail or barely braking even, bring real expertise to bear and triple their profits within a few years. The ones we buy that are successful always attribute it to "hard work" but the reality is they founded a business at the right time and place and hit the jackpot from circumstances. They want to sell because they cant outgrow their luck.....

The above represents 95% of the small business in existence. Yes there are well run and managed small business but they are so far and few between its laughable...and the banks know it and its why they basically want your first born to give you a loan.

Linkedin / Indeed

This is an excellent strategy

I’d also add that you can message hiring managers. When I moved to the city I realized I had no connections and that jobs are often gotten via who you know. Defn an element of nepotism.

So I said fuk it I’ll go make my own connections, so I started emailing hiring managers and taking them out for coffees. Even if there wasn’t an immediate opening I built a pipeline of hiring managers that served me well for future opportunities.

I remember I took a guy out for coffee once and there wasn’t a role but in 6 months he reached out and we grabbed a beer and I had the job. He told me to go fill out the online application just so they can be compliant with HR.

Here is a message I’ve used that has gotten me two jobs.

100%. You’ve got to use forced luck and put yourself in the best position to succeed. Amazing how many people just submit an application and then sit around and hope theirs will be picked out of hundreds. If you really want the job you are going to make an outreach and try to get some time on their calendar, and that will stand out to them vs the sea of idiots that have made no effort beyond the application.

What do if you don't drink beer or play golf?
