Hi
I am currently looking for a new job, reason being I landed a role 6 months ago with the downside being a 2hr commute each way. I am now at a point where I have enough experience to move on.
I have tried Indeed and other common forms of finding work but its like finding a needle in a haystack just the odd oppurtunity that comes up. I find this way is time intensive with little results.
So I have been looking into other ways of finding work, these are the ones I have come up with:
- Messaging Hiring manages on LinkedIn for discussions (this way through conversation they have found me roles of which it would appear I am underqualified for but due to the companies needing somebody ASAP they will comprimise, I got one job offer through this method for a managerial role of which I was underqualified for, I am expecting a phone interview soon)
- Sending emails out to companies directly with a CV/Resume for them to keep on file
- Sprucing up my LinkedIn profile, this way I get people adding me reguarly interested in offering me roles.
What are some things other people have tried? What other methods would you recommend?
