I was recruited from the companies own conference they held in Australia. 'Cletus' was recruited from his StackOverflow iirc. General rules: Be friendly, polite and sell the positives of being state-side (larger tech community, more user groups, conferences, etc)

Would Australians in general have strong preferences about parts of the US? It would seem like the "stronger tech community" argument works IFF you're in Silicon Valley, not so much if you're in North Dakota....

  Yes. Almost all Australians I know have ended up in New York or Silicon Valley. Some have ended up in minor hubs, e.g. Seattle, Boston, Boulder, etc.

    Which locations in Australia are the best to visit for recruiting (specifically for network/infrastructure/security types, not so much mobile apps/social media.)

      The big cities: Melbourne and Sydney. You might get some joy from one of the other state capitals (Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Darwin, Brisbane), but your best bet would be the big two.
