Open source is a great idea! I haven't seen most people mention that on their resume (and I feel people are afraid to dive into that world), so it really sets you apart as a candidate.

I will mention this idea to a small group of new grads I help guide. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I agree that the applying to 100s of random jobs on LinkedIn strategy no longer works that well. I tried this two years ago when I was looking for jobs, and didn't see much success.

Curious, since you mentioned you used your network - did you just reach out to people on LinkedIn and ask for a referral, or was it in some other ways?
