Signed up on LinkedIn just to be. Added as friends all colleagues and acquaintances. Completed a profile. Specified skills. Colleagues improved my skills.
I never looked for a job there, but they immediately started writing HR's to me. Then they bugged me and I wrote in a big profile that I was not looking for a job and do not write at all with a salary below $50/hour. They began to write less often, but they did not stop completely. Now they write every couple of weeks. Jobs are very good. And relocation. And visa assistance. And social package + car + housing. A bunch of everything. Senior level full stack.

A bunch of hunters. Your level must be at least Confident Middle.
