Hello, I'm looking for more software jobs to apply for I used LinkedIn and currently using Wellfound. Is there any other good job site I could use to find roles? Specifically, I'm looking for a backend or full-stack role. Also, I wanted to ask how I reach out about finding the rare junior roles that may not be advertised is this something I ask someone or do I hope a position I apply for will make an exception?
I find simplify (https://simplify.jobs/jobs?experience=Entry%20Level%2FNew%20Grad%3BJunior) really great. Using the extension i can easily apply to 100 jobs in 2 hours
I've found LinkedIn not that great for looking for roles. It has a ton of ads, most of them are irrelevant or a bit shady contracting postings. It also doesnt recommend roles of the right level. I use boolean search to filter out senior roles to make it better. Here is the command I used when looking for ML roles
("machine learning" OR "ML" )(NOT "senior" NOT "sr" NOT "manager" NOT "lead" NOT "principal")
You can also do a google search with boolean search to search for greenhouse and lever.co
I use something like this:
site:lever.co ("US" OR "United States" OR "USA") ("ML Engineer" OR "Machine Learning Engineer") -"Staff" -"intern" -"internship" -"Senior" -"Principal" -"Sr"
Here are 2 other websites:
You can also use Taro Networking to look for referrals: https://www.jointaro.com/networking/?selectedServices=Referrals
Lastly, I highly recommend this other thread: "How to get interview calls?"
One way to orient your search is to look for jobs in which you have a unique advantage. Some that come to mind:
