How to Get Hired as a Software Engineer in 2026: LinkedIn, Resume, Strategy

In 2026, you can’t “avoid LinkedIn” and expect to get hired BUT you can't use it like 2023.

In this episode, I break down the exact LinkedIn + resume strategy I’d use today to maximize recruiter inbound, increase your surface area for luck, and stop making the most common mistakes that quietly kill your chances.


We cover:

  • Why “Aspiring Junior Developer” and “Open to Work” often backfire

  • How to make your first visible experience look software-related (even if you’re career-switching)

  • The keyword/tech-stack problem that makes you invisible in recruiter search

  • A simple formula to improve your resume

  • Why “learn in public” is optional now—and what to do instead

  • The fastest way to hit 500+ connections (without cringe networking)

  • The 80/20 application approach: when to “Easy Apply” vs when to go aggressive

  • Messaging tactics that stand out in a world of AI-generated slop

  • A realistic volume target (and what to change if you’re getting zero responses)

If you want a practical plan to start getting interviews again—this is it.
