The best jobs are not only not posted, they are jobs that don't exist until you create them yourself.

  You can kind of think about it probabilistically: good jobs should be filled quickly because they're desirable (and they should be reasonably effective at attracting good talent to fill them) Good candidates should get offers quickly. Thus, the best way to get a good job is to be there the moment it's posted (or even better, before) The dual is true for candidates, too.

    "good jobs" is very simplistic. There are good jobs for every individual at every stage of their life. Are they all the same? Some like shit for salary while getting the thrill of being a cofounder, some may like a flashy brand and half the comp in stock, others might prefer a lesser brand but more cash. There are also boring 9-5 jobs that leave tons of time to be with the family. Which one is a "good job"?

      All models are wrong, some are useful. I don't think your nit undermines any of the point I was making
