Alternative: Submit resumes directly to companies you are interested in and/or use a recruiter. The latter is surprisingly nice. Last time I used one I got lined up for phone interviews with little effort and the recruiter pushed the company forward during the hiring pipeline when the company was being wishy-washy.
The recruiter only gets full payment if you get hired and stay at your job for a full year. (And this payment does not come from you!)
I have such bad things to say about recruiters. They generally don’t have a clue about any of the skills related to the jobs I’m after, and they take a huge cut of the pay the entire time I’m working the job.
On the other hand, the two best jobs (highest pay and best working environment) I’ve had in my career, I got through recruiters, so I acknowledge them as a useful business when it works out. The last one has led to the company buying my contract and hiring me directly for the past 12 years

How do you find a recruiter without LinkedIn?
Do a web search for recruiting firms. Find one who specifically mentions they recruit for your industry.
Michael Page found mm e a job once
In most cases the cut-off is six months, not a year.
That honestly looks like the only option. Just gonna set up a github pages with my resume and keep that updated instead.
I’m employed at the moment so this isn’t that big a deal.
That’s what I decided.
It will be more informative, and I have lots of options for hosting.
