This is strange advice, but the best advice I can give: don&#x27;t be looking for a job - instead look to help interesting people, to get to know them, and to establish lasting relationships.<p>These people will get to know you, will find out about jobs you might like way before the recruiters do, or before they are posted on job sites, sometimes even before they&#x27;re announced. They&#x27;ll know, and want, to let you know about the jobs too, and you&#x27;ll do the same for them.<p>This strategy has worked very well for me, and I&#x27;ve built a network of amazing friendly people in the process.<p>The trick to this strategy is to always be connecting (nod to Glengarry Glen Ross there), before you ever are in need of a job. If you are in need of one and haven&#x27;t done that, then I&#x27;d advise like others have here and try to leverage what network you have.
