Use Google Dorks to Find Your Dream Job

You may already be familiar with Google Dorks — a technique that use specially crafted Google queries to find known vulnerabilities on indexed websites — but did you know those special queries can also help you find your dream job?

Most software used by HR these days don’t list jobs directly on their platform, you need to find the list from the company's website or on LinkedIn.

See below a collection of Google Dorks that will list all these jobs offerings. Tweak those dorks to match your needs.

Rapha

Rapha seems to be preferred by startups yet, and allows you to apply to job offerings by sending voice messages.

Follow.app

Follow is a sleek, new RSS reader currently in invite-only mode. For alternatives, there are other RSS readers. The interesting feature here is RSSHub, a self-hostable tool that can convert any website into an RSS feed.

I use it to generate RSS feeds for multiple job sites:
