Ask HN: How did you find your current job?

4 pointsby um304over 7 years ago
Hi,<p>Job hunting is isn&#x27;t easy for most of us. There are several tools available which can be used for the purpose, but some might be more effective than others. It&#x27;s worth finding out what has worked for others before investing your time in any of them. So here&#x27;s my question to the community:<p>How did you find your current job?<p>- Personal reference<p>- HackerNews (Who is hiring thread)<p>- Stackoverflow<p>- LinkedIn<p>- Other (please mention)

Recruiter. Was just casually exploring the market to decide whether to begin a job search in earnest, and they happened to send me something that was a good match for the next stage of my career development.

All but one job I&#x27;ve ever held has had at least some form of reference to get me in the door.<p>Many have been from direct personal recruitment on the part of a former colleague who wanted to work with me again.

Recruiter and completely took me by surprise. I was looking as I was in a horrid &#x27;survival&#x27; job but hadn&#x27;t turned to this one resource. It was an excellent call out of the blue.

Recruiters and a plethora of job posting sites like Monster, Dice, and jobs. Weeding through the junk is the tough part.
