> I've noticed that the most lucrative jobs are seldom "alertable" public postings. I haven't really come across those kind of positions that are secret or not advertised. > The best ROI for my time has always come from responding to recruiters who message me... That's a very romantic view of the real-world experience of random messages on LinkedIn, many times with even the wrong name on them.

They never said the worst ROI didn't also come from responding to recuiters. I've met great ones that lead me to interesting roles and ones that tried to gaslight me on the same platform. It's a people problem more than a recruiter problem specifically.

> many times with even the wrong name on them. "GREAT COMPANY, MARKET LEADER, LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCED PHYTON DEVELOPPER" I wish i was joking, but this isn't that far from what i received, multiple times. Yes, the caps lock is part of the message.
