LinkedIn has been the most effective for me, personally. I seem to have less-scammy recruiters reach out to me on LinkedIn than on other platforms. I’m in my current role that I didn’t even apply for, but got offered from a direct outreach by a recruiter, and it made the process very seamless.
I’ve used Indeed in the past, but seem to encounter a lot more scammers from India there. That could just be related to my field, though. I get more phishing attempts from Indeed than job offers.
Same - I only received a follow-up from a direct application to a company once, and that was about twenty years after I had applied, and even then only to inform me that the role was no longer being filled.
Recruiters reaching out to me via LinkedIn is how I’ve gotten every job ever since LinkedIn existed.
