What do you mean by the vast majority jobs go unposted? Are you really so good leadership will get additional headcount just to hire you for a nonexistent position?
He probably means that when it comes time to hire they will ask existing employees if they know any good candidates before they start making posts on job boards
Yup! That’s exactly what I meant. By the time a formal job posting has been written and a recruiter gets involved a hiring manager has generally asked everyone from their star IC to their mom’s hairdresser for a referral.
