Job boards suck. Once, a company rejected me on a job board but had actually contacted me via HN - they quickly changed the status from failed to in interviews to avoid confusion. Another time, the job board rejected me half a month after I had been working at the place.

LinkedIn is a little better, but it's just flooded by busy recruiters who message literally everyone then remember two weeks later about that job they were talking to you about.

I tried scraping job postings but there's literally 0% response rate because I guess everyone else does this too.

Got my current job from HN's who wants a job. Just started this month, so it works.

Unfortunately with the AI spam you might have to go old school and cold DM/email people on LinkedIn or something.
