- skip generic job boards like indeed, dice, and monster since leads rarely turn into real interviews and resumes get filtered by keyword systems
- look beyond typical meetups for networking, try reverse job fairs and talking directly with internal recruiters
- ask for a salary range early in the process so you avoid finding out you're 30 to 40k apart after a final interview
- invest in a professional resume and linkedin rewrite so recruiters start reaching out to you instead of you chasing every lead
- prep for interviews by researching the company and interviewer, practicing whiteboarding on sites like interview cake, and putting full effort into take-home assignments
