How Best To Reach Hiring Employers?
byrneseyeview: One way recruiters sometimes do it is to send a blind resume, with the identifying data removed. But that's gotten harder to do thanks to LinkedIn ("Went to Dartmouth, worked at Bridgewater, lives in Dallas? There's only one in the whole wide world.")You could still give it a shot, though: find companies that are hiring, email the hiring manager if you can find his/her contact information. One slightly iffy tactic that recruiters use is to ask where people have interviewed, then to ask who they interviewed with. That at least gets you a name, though you may want to be vague about where you got it ("I was just trying to find a job for that guy you decided not to hire...").
