You **search for a job** position on the company website, or in an employment search engine (LinkedIn, Indeed, and so on) or you meet recruiters at Job Fairs or Recruiters contact you, and so on. * If a recruiter contacts you don’t convince yourself that you are a strong candidate and put too much hope in that position, also if the recruiter is telling you so, because probably they are just spamming, trying to insert you in the funnel. Sometimes happens that you receive mails with errors, something that literally starts like “Hello %name%...”, because they are using a software to send thousands of emails, some of them will respond and get you inserted into the funnel.
