Ask HN: How do you find a recruiter?

Then evidently I am the all-time winner for unintentional hide-and-seek. :)

Sadly, the job market is saturated for remote work, and even 20 years of experience and a PhD isn't helping cut through it all.

Thank you for your response. I've never interacted with a recruiter before (never needed to), so I wasn't familiar with how they operate.
