Context: Searching for a new senior level software development job over a 9 week period in summer 2025.

  • Focused mostly on data engineering and backend roles that are in-person or hybrid in the SF Bay Area.
  • Leads from recruiters on LinkedIn were much more likely to lead to interviews+offers.
  • The winning offer came through my personal network.
  • I mostly used Hiring.cafe for prospecting. They’re a scraper with an interface I didn’t hate.

    Thanks for sharing that. Seems like a promising vis technique but would work better with fewer final states than I used for a regular Sankey.

      I’m sure it’s possible to move the final states to the middle positions like you did. But I didn’t want to invest more time.
