I'll do one better - warm DM. This means you actively try to network and engage with peers and leaders in your area so that when it comes to a job search you're not just one of 100 other candidates asking for a referral or a profile consideration.

  1. Contribute by sharing your knowledge in forms of posts, articles, commenting on stuff shared by others, answering ai-generated questions related to your skillsets, etc.

  2. Try to network more by joining active groups/communities.

  3. Create a GitHub portfolio and add it to your LinkedIn.

  4. Combine these 3 with what Gupchup suggested, then you will be in a good place IMO.

Please note that these things will take time, don't be in a hurry or blind race to gain as many
connections/followers possible in a very short time; the ways to do that are messy with chances of losing your credibility.

So focus instead on the long term game by gradually building your profile.
