The Scoop #4: Remote work and Interacting with Recruiters

newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com

The Scoop is a bonus series, covering patterns and trends I’ve heard within big tech and high-growth startups.

In this issue:

  • Big Tech talent wars in Africa and Latin America. While great for employees, local startups are struggling to compete.

  • The great immigrant resignation in the US. A “reverse migration” happening, seemingly accelerated by the pandemic.

  • Remote work is here to stay. At least for startups. Data from Y Combinator and Djinni.

  • The struggle to recruit recruiters. Has there ever been more demand for tech recruiters?

  • Interacting with recruiters for fun and profit. Just kidding about the fun part. Advice to profit from inbound LinkedIn messages with little effort.
