Hey everyone! 👋

I’m currently on the hunt for my next adventure as a software engineer, and I’m looking for some pointers! What’s the best way to apply for jobs these days? Got any secret URLs or magical portals to send proposals? 🔮✨

A little about me: I’ve been coding up a storm for the past few years, working on everything from travel apps to data orchestration platforms. I love using tech like React, Angular, Python, Node and even dabbled in AI/ML! Whether it's optimizing backend processes or making websites shine, I'm all about that tech life. 🚀

Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/arrian-curry-software-engineer) or drop your favorite job hunting tips in the comments! Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏

Let’s make this job search fun! 😄

    The only magical portal is to network IRL and be skilled and confident enough to convince people you're worth hiring.

      Feel free to connect to me. Do you mind telling me which LinkedIn post of mine was inspiring and how it was inspiring?

      I saw your last 20 posts!

      After the first 5, I smiled. 😊
      By 10, I was laughing out loud. 😂
      After the next 5, I had no choice—I hit that connect button! 🤝🙂

    My recommendation to make your job search much, much easier: lead with value.

    Become an expert in something (anything!) and share your knowledge. Offer to help people with something like React boilerplate, Node, or SEO.

    Also, you get ~100 LinkedIn connection requests per week. Use them! (and add personalized notes to make clear that you're not selling anything).
