Already cleared HC-L3 for Zurich and now I am stuck on team matching phase for a month or so.

Recruiter said that she is constantly looking for teams, but the headcount is low.

I would like to know if someone else is facing the same issues, and what would be to best strategy to solve this problem:

1) reach out to managers using linkedin/friends?
2) blind?
3) something else?

YOE: 3
TC: 🤦🏼‍♀️

    12 YOE but small no names and corporate (not FAANG), I was told I was submitted to both L3 and L4, which given the comp would both be amazing for me, I've no ego about level, just want good TC lol. Interviews went really well and HC didn't want any further ones.

      From what I’ve heard, MUC is growing fast, so there are more openings. LON has the same problems that ZRH in a lower degree. Are you looking for 2019 or 2020?
