  • Linkedin premium
  • writing cold message(In mails) to recruiters on linkedin or email.
  • Active profile on instahyre or linkedin. I am assuming there might be some metrics visible to recruiters who last applied and what not.
  • Learn in public, if you are dev, make sure you share your learning publicly, if not than maybe start writing tech blogs.
  • Open source contribution matters no matter which stage of career you are at.
  • Proper resume, Someone already said it, to the point resume makes life easy for recruiters thus more chances that will even read the whole goddamn thing.
  • ATS score of your resume.

(1) Buy 1 year LinkedIn premium (not kidding). I've been headhunted for interviews way more after purchasing premium.
Plus it pays well if you keep your profile updated. Easy Apply (with premium) puts your profile on top among 500+ applicants.

(2) Make your resume 1 pager. I have 10 years of experience and I use just one page on my resume. Create a 2 column layout on a single page and highlight only the important points.

(3) Portfolio sets you apart.

I’m dumbfounded when the best piece of advice I hear is that its a numbers game and probability is supreme. There’s got to be a strategy that one applies to shortlist from the ocean of offers out there.
