After many trials, I believe the job search requires different approaches. For starters, think of a dream company. Imagine if a project comes up and they use an agency to do the leg work for them and hire contractors. This is one way to get into companies. It's like getting in through the back door. This contract could lead into an employee position if you're a fit. This is how I interviewed for SalesForce the other week.
So who are these agencies? Well, some can do temp assignments (which are cool too), direct hires, temp to perm etc. So use my name if you contact these people. Also, remember they have leads at top companies, but they won't give you their best foot forward unless you're clear on what you want (bring a list of companies to target)
Step 1: visit their website
Step 2: fill in an online profile
Step 3: try to set up an in person meeting so they can personalize your services
Step 4: stay on top of mind and email/call weekly.
