3 of the last 4 roles have been recruiters from LinkedIn (Solution Architecture), including the current one. The one exception was reaching out to a customer to let them know I was leaving and they counter offered to get me to join them. LinkedIn is probably the most valuable one to me, by far.

2nd this, Linkedin.

(Midwest / Linux Devop infrastructure) I was looking around $125k, up from the current $110k. Co-worker complained all his buddies were doing contracting for $130k so I bumped my ask to that when I got an offer and it was met no issue. Had a round of counter-offers when I put in my notice and new place bumped me to $142k with no issue. Probably could have gone higher, but I'm happy.
