Finding Remote Jobs Before They Hit Boards Recommended on Medium
What Medium Writers Say
Medium writers and tech enthusiasts often feature ReDeck in their 'best productivity tools' lists. The community appreciates the distraction-free interface and robust feature set for power users.
The hidden job market
By the time a job is posted on LinkedIn or Indeed, hundreds of people have already applied. However, many startup founders and hiring managers post roles on X (Twitter) days before paying for official job boards.
To land these hidden opportunities, you have to be one of the first people to see the tweet and reply or DM the founder.
Advanced job search columns
In ReDeck, create search columns using highly specific Boolean operators. For example: `('hiring' OR 'looking for') AND ('freelance' OR 'remote') AND 'designer' -filter:retweets`.
Turn on the 'Live Feed' feature for this column. Every time a founder tweets about needing a designer, it will pop up on your screen instantly.
Networking efficiently
When you spot an opportunity, the multi-column layout allows you to quickly view the founder's profile in an adjacent column to understand their company before sending a DM.
This speed and context give you a massive advantage over candidates applying blindly through job portals.
