As I pursue my next career move, I'm trying to be as selective as possible to find something I'm passionate about and that I can stay at for a while.
Most of us know that the most effective way to land a job is to go above/beyond the application and reach out to the Recuiter/sales team/manager. Problem is, I'm having a hard time with these folks even accepting a LinkedIn request. I'm usually fairly effective when it comes to personal outreach - but even reaching out to sales reps to ASK about what their company is like...crickets.
Has anyone been experiencing the same thing? I find it wild and honestly a tad disheartening when sales folks don't even want to network. I'm in IT security too where having referall connections really pays off.
