>I get spam from Recruiters** on LinkedIn Spam back. Recruiters contact me-- that's 95% of the reason I am on LinkedIn: So potential employers can find me. Now I've had Amazon, Meta, and Google contact me. Amazon I worked with as a consultant so I was in their system. a Meta recruiter found me on LinkedIn. and I applied to Google and a few months later they reached out. In call cases, they've viewed my Web portfolio, Github profile, and LinkedIn page. This is "Marketing". It's one thing to have "Skills". But if no one knows you have skills, then you must market yourself in order to use the skills in the course of working for others. Skills + Marketing => Get job => Be productive => Build career & Make money But you can't do it efficiently without both Building Your Skills and Marketing Yourself. ** Regarding Recruiters on LinkedIn: I simply use a text expansion tool like Espanso ( https://espanso.org/ https://espanso.org/ ) to paste a message to them, usually something like this (Note: this is a "strategy" just like marketing. For any problem/challenge, develop a strategy to tackle it.): Thanks for contacting me! Unfortunately since I am contacted by <insert some number here> recruiters per week it is not feasible to meet with them all. Before we meet, could you please tell me: -> Who is the company? (optional) -> Is the role 100% remote & am I permitted to live outside the USA? -> What is the salary range? -> Is the role for a Full Stack Javascript (NodeJS, ReactJS, AWS --> my areas of expertise (Learning React-Native currently))? -> What steps does the interview process involve-- How many steps, What is involved in each step? -> Do you have a full job description you could send? Here's my resume.
