      I was referred to one by a friend personally, she gave me the name of the person that helped her find a job when she was unemployed. Apparently if your resume is shiny enough they will come to you via linkedin. Other than that there’s looking up firms or individual recruiters on google or linkedin that have good relationships in your desired industry/locale, giving them your resume, and hoping for the best.

        I get lots of recruiters pinging me on LinkedIn and always assumed it was a scam. I’m also in a pretty niche industry and have desirable experience though, so maybe they do just want me

      I just posted my resume on Linked in and was contacted by like a dozen different recruiters over a few months. I imagine that this varies a lot by profession.

      When I used to do data entry, I contacted a couple of recruiting firms I found on Google, and they were able to find me suitable work very quickly.
