When I first started (in college), it was Craigslist and MySpace. From then till I stopped freelancing, I tried recruiters, friends, family, etc. Networking (which leads to word of mouth) is so key. The bigger your network and the stronger your relationships, the more chance for great work. Ideally, you want work that steadily flows your way with little outreach on your part. That's what I'm creating matchist (http://matchist.com/talent http://matchist.com/talent) for. We want to be a trusted resource in your top circle that sends you quality work.
