"Bro u didn't include me"

Contact us directly at bowtiedhippopotamus@gmail.com or @BowTiedHippo_

We'll review and briefly discuss, then include. Our aim here is to add and collate as many supporting job search resources for the Jungle.

We also apologise.

Our own memories are very fallible. A constant issue, for us at least, short of the appearance of BowTied Archivist / Librarian / Reference is keeping on top of who does what in the Jungle and how to organise and share that knowledge.

Brighter minds than ours are aware of this, and this very subject may become both a very practical or very boring later note.

"Fren should I use recruiter - you did not say?"

We'll cover this in part II and will definitely update this note with at minimum a clear exec summary / conclusion for you.

Short answer: It depends

Use them if their incentives are aligned and you don't have a better inside track with the company / line manager. Part II will outline the pros and cons throughout the recruitment process and give as much guidance as we can.

A comment from confirmed Chad Brazil that we overlooked and didn't explicitly cover

"Super useful for jungle. One thing I want to add:

If you’re adding value, not being a dick on here, and have a clearly defined niche/value prop, engaging with other jungle members can lead to opps too. I would def hire many of you who we’ve had DMs with for ex(ample), when/if needed"
