I have some job-hunting questions for any codecel willing to answer

Got a thing where I'd have to relocate for rto nonsense at my current job in a couple months (85k for frontend software dev at a big consulting place) and I've got a couple years of experience from this job now so I'm evaluating my options.

How fricked is the market? I saw a lot of doom and gloom on /g/ and reddit when I was poking around but I haven't heard back yet from any of the apps I sent out last week to start getting my own read on things except the expected "frick off r-slur" responses from STRAGMAN .

How important are stats and numbers about my work in the resume? I see it emphasized on the SEO optimized spam resume advice sites. Not sure how seriously I should take this.

How important are side projects? They were half my resume coming out of college because I had frick all for experience but I don't have anything I'd feel comfortable showing off to someone right now.

I'm not a codecel but I'm adjacent to the tech industry. Are you looking for remote-only jobs? If so you'll be more fricked than a hybrid or in person role.

Pimp your linkedin and then the recruiters will come to you.

Are you looking for remote-only jobs?

No, I'm looking for another right now because 85k post all the inflation the last few years is chickenfeed. Wouldn't actually mind in person. I miss talking to people face to face instead of getting ghosted when I need info or a PR approval to close a jira.

Any tips for Linkedin pimping? I filled it out but don't really use it much beyond the job searching function. Not sure I have time to wait for them to come to me either, pretty sure they will just cut me if I don't show up in person in a couple months barring whatever excuses I throw in.

You can try looking up people in HR roles for companies you're interested in and sliding into their DMs. Possibly even CEO/CTOs for smaller startups
