somewhere oer the rainbow.

i hope you enjoyed it steve, and have many more exciting adventures.

I definitely used Indeed and Monster. Robert Half recruiting. AngelList, I think. That's from memory. It seems like I tried one or two others as well, but I don't remember what they were. I also don't remember which one was the source of the interview that landed me the job. (This was January/February 2023.)
I haven't looked at Indeed or Monster, wasn't sure if they were still relevant these days. I'll check them out though, thanks!
My impression is that Monster at least is less relevant than it was 15 years ago. It's not nothing, but it's not The Place anymore.

Indeed is I think a bit better, but it also can result in you getting spammed by people who have a technical job opening, and see that you can do something technical by your resume, and so send you openings to which you have absolutely no interest.

LinkedIn. I filter job postings made within the last 24 hours only. Based on past experience, the further back I was at the applicant line, the smaller the chances for getting past the initial quick scan/screen
