Want to chat about this? If it's interesting, I might look into it ;)

I've got no answer to your question, but it amuses me to no end that what should be a simple problem of finding someone fit for a role is still largely unsolved.

On the last team I worked with, my manager complained a lot about how hard hiring is. On the other end of the spectrum, you hear a lot of complaints about how hard getting hired is.

Too true - I remember the last time I was job hunting I applied for multiple jobs and talked with a couple of recruiters and all of my efforts got me one single interview (which was successful). I told a friend to apply in another department at the same company and he never heard back, yet I frequently hear managers saying how hard it is to find good talent.

So where do you look for jobs?

[wsgeorge]

The usual suspects: LinkedIn, Indeed, Workable and a few other local job boards. I'm part of a professional contractor network too, which helps a lot.

Can you help share about this network? I just got laid off, part of a massive layoff cycle in my company and I am looking for some opportunities.
