Numbers from my recent job hunt

• bix6 1y ago
  Out of 10 interviews how many were from the referral category?
  • Shane325 1y ago
    7 from referrals. 2 interviews from networking events, and 1 from an inbound email (which turned into an offer).
    • bix6 1y ago
      So referrals got you more interviews but the inbound got you the job? Interesting. My buddy also got his job recently from an inbound.

  > Unfortunately, the spray and pray method will not work in this job market. I guess the takeaway is if you don't already have a solid network to draw referrals from your top priority while job hunting should be attending networking events to build one?
  • Shane325 1y ago
    Yes. If you can chat with someone face-to-face you’re already miles ahead of an online application. I wouldn’t even say you need to have a solid network. I just reached out to people on LinkedIn (some of whom I didn’t know).
