Can you speak a bit to your experience with recruiters reaching out to you on Stack Overflow? How frequently do you get reached out to? Do they usually mention that they noticed you on SO? Are all the jobs they are looking to fill specific to the questions you answered on SO? Thanks! |

It's mostly a matter of quality over quantity. On SO I got 4 job offers since September, all of them viable and decent offers, all from recruiters internal to the company who would hire me. On Linkedin instead I get more messages, but most of them are from hunters working for 3rd party agencies, or just very low quality offers/business proposals.

To be fair not really. I suspect it's a combination of what you advertise in your developer story and your reputation on the platform. That's how I would do it at least. Of course any recruiter looking up to your developer story can also check your question/answers, it's public data anyway.
