I’m a senior software engineer with a pretty uncommon skill set. Recruiters are the primary way that companies hire in my industry outside of networking contacts and I get contacted frequently. The job before my current one was through a recruiter.

I very much dislike Microsoft and LinkedIn in general, but not using it all is a huge handicap that isn’t worth taking on.

It’s how recruiters find me, so unfortunately I can’t. I almost never open it, though.

Another super cool thing about it is that it’s written entirely in Haskell!
