Unconventional ways to find a software engineering job

Meetup

If you live in a larger city, it’s likely that there are events or meetups nearby. I recommend using meetup.com or checking local event websites for tech-related meetups. Although you may be looking for a job, it’s better to focus on making real connections here. Going to events and asking everyone you meet if they’re hiring isn’t a great way to go about it. To form connections, I’d recommend picking 1-2 regular events and joining them weekly. You’ll see familiar faces and become one yourself.
