Out of 10 interviews how many were from the referral category?
Shane325•6mo ago
7 from referrals. 2 interviews from networking events, and 1 from an inbound email (which turned into an offer).
bix6•6mo ago
So referrals got you more interviews but the inbound got you the job? Interesting. My buddy also got his job recently from an inbound.

> Unfortunately, the spray and pray method will not work in this job market.

I guess the takeaway is if you don't already have a solid network to draw referrals from your top priority while job hunting should be attending networking events to build one?

Shane325•6mo ago
Yes. If you can chat with someone face-to-face you’re already miles ahead of an online application. I wouldn’t even say you need to have a solid network. I just reached out to people on LinkedIn (some of whom I didn’t know).
