Sourcing where you want to apply
Make a list of the tools/apps/companies you like to use
Outbound (Make a top 10 list)
Inbound (review inbound recruiter outreach from the past 3 months or more)
Networking (who do you know, try to do some coffee chats to see if they like their company and team)
Cold outreach is tough (numbers game)
Timing - interviewing such that offers come in around the same time
Resume & cover letter & LinkedIn & Social
Have these reviewed by your peers and iterate on feedback
Make sure you communicate the things you’ve done that add value, ideally how much value you’ve added. Situation Behavior Impact (SBI) is a good framework for bullets
Omit anything unrelated to the job you’re going for (hot take?)
