Re:Ask HN: Where do you look for work if you need experience? by coroutines on Tuesday September 08, 2015 @09:47PM (#10189231)
I actually felt really bad about my Github after I started applying because most of the repos I had were forks of things I wanted to work on but hadn't gotten around to. I felt like I was taking credibility from others so I spent an afternoon deleting a lot of untouched inspiration. I do think applying for jobs is like throwing spaghetti on the wall and seeing what sticks - but it's such a waste of good pasta :(

(I swear that's a metaphor with deep meaning)

Anyway, I'll go look at dice.com right now, though :-) - my pool has been craigslist, indeed, linkedin, glassdoor, assembly, caljobs, and.. I know there are a few others :s

This might be an unpopular opinions but I sort of wish there were just a government-run site for posting your resume and connecting you with companies. If I ever do get hired I'm sure identity theft is soon to follow from all my applications :(
