One of the best software engineers I worked with was on the job market: and their job search was completely different than almost all job searches: This engineer did not fire off a single job application or reply to any LinkedIn InMail or other message.

I posted about this person five months ago, and on LinkedIn, a dev asked if it would be possible to interview this engineer (thank you!) I asked, and he said yes, but with one condition: to keep his identity anonymous (he is not seeking employment, nor does he want fame or attention.) The interview is out in today's @Pragmatic_Eng.
