This is basically a forum. So, people will comment on their experiences.
I can give you a response on both sides, me as a candidate and me as an interviewer.

How do you validate the responses here?
I’m asking because job search is in my experience a cutthroat endeavour dominated by unscrupulous agencies and employers, mixed with incompetent human resource departments muddying the waters in relation to actual positions for the purpose of restricting wages and opportunities for potential employees.

I’m not sure what you mean?

As a candidate, I have a couple of trusted recruiters I prefer to work through.
I found them through trial and error.
As an employer, every year I call and buy lunch for at least about a dozen potential future employees, to remind them that my team exists and that I think they could be a good fit.

That’s an interesting approach that I’ve not encountered.
If you do remote only and want to talk to someone with over 40 years ICT experience, hit me up. I’m in UTC+8.

Thank you. I don’t have any vacancies right now, but I’ll be happy to let you know if that changes.
