Visited Seattle for the first time yesterday (from Australia). I have to say that unless you start paying me off I'm going to start promoting it. The people were super friendly. The weather was great (two days of sunny blue skies). The

[positive helpful] You're not really competing against just 'pay people to speak to recruiters though'. You're competing against any recruiting platform or professional network (e.g linked in). You have to consider them

Along with all the other suggestions: - Go a little bit rogue. Focus on what you think it's important for the company/team to be doing regardless of what "smarter" people are telling you to do. - Find non-tech people wit
