I tried some of this, mostly because I was curious, but, although they said 'remote very possible', jobs always turned out to actually be on location. Did covid change this radically?
all the standard linkedin best practices to start.
load up your profile with all the buzzwords. Your CV is nothing but keyword stuffing into a search ending.
Write the title/headline for the job you want, no the one you have.
profile and summary should include ANYTHING you have done that supports the story claimed in the headline above.
side projects.
github repos
student projects
that flask app to help mom track birthdays
anything that has a story.
then pay the money (yes, $50 / month is a sacrifice but worth the pain) and that give you the ability to scale your reach and hitup all the recruiters.
get them on a call (the good ones will give you 15-20 minutes) and have the conversation.
Ask them about the market. Salaries, positions they are seeing.
They want to meet you as much as you want to meet them.
