Build a good LinkedIn profile to get attractions.
LinkedIn and Indeed both have resume writers ($80-$400), from rewriting your resume to refreshing your LinkedIn profile to make it professional, avoiding being filtered by automatic algorithms used by HRs.
Change the key skills in the resume for each job. Different job has different priority of skills and requirement.
Only list related work history if too many. HR may ask about the work gaps if they find any. Be prepared.

A joke about how jobseekers’ resumes can be overstated.
Reality vs. LinkedIn
Reality: I got my driving license
LinkedIn:
I am honored and thrilled to announce that I have been selected among the top 5 applicants who participated in the professional and the most-respected exam which evaluates the skills and ability to operate fuel-based vehicles. I cannot wait to see what the next chapter holds, and I cannot express my appreciation to the ministry of transportation, Wendy's, Google, NASA, my neighbors who supported me during this difficult journey.

Avoid meeting with 3rd party recruiters. They may not know well what skills you have and what the company needs. Waste time. You can always search for famous companies or search by job title. You know the best if a job is for you by read carefully the job descriptions.
————————————
Job search
Use search engines like LinkedIn jobs, Indeed, google jobs, or a company’s official site (career page) to find recent job posts.
Use Glassdoor to check salary range, internal information about a company, is this a good place to work?
Subscribe to job alert to capture the trend of skills, needs, and potential of the growth of a company (are they hiring multiple positions? Did they get new investment?).
———————————
Hidden job market. Your relationships, LinkedIn connections (HRs) may be good sources.

How to negotiate salary?
1 - Do not try to negotiate via text or e-mail (body language, emotions)
Better: face 2 face or telephone (practice ahead)
2 - Come to the meeting with facts, not feelings
Research your contributions to the company, numbers, present things you do and things you can do in the future
3 - Ask questions, don’t make statements
Don’t justify, whoever asks the questions controls the conversation
4 - Set the agenda (What is the outcome we want from this meeting?)
Do you mind talking about compensation? Based on my research, someone with my skills, background the market rate is X-amount per year. Would you be comfortable with that?
5 - Don’t be needy
Not want/need, but: I would be more comfortable with that. Is there any flexibility? Would you be comfortable with that? -> be neutral
6 - Become more valuable
Add more value, not hours but what results you bring to the company, most CEOs are willing to pay more to compensate higher skills, 1 dollar more to the employer = 10 dollars more to the company?, every persons job is to generate revenue generate more sales/eliminate waste, years don’t equal results, ask the CEO: what can I do to bring more value to the company? Solve problems for him/her (ahead of the time, before it even comes up) That way you become invaluable
7 - Painting a picture in the CEO’s mind
If CEO says no: Communicate your goal, e.g. you want to become the most valuable team member, not to be an expense, but a revenue generator, not here to mess around, but to contribute. Help me to understand: right now I make X and my goal is Y or Z. Not immediately, but there’s a plan. Can you teach me, show me, tell me, what would it take to earn Z per year? What would be your expectations? = CEO is brainstorming with you. After that, pretend that this would happen: Would you be comfortable paying me Z per year, is that what I am hearing from you? If I can prove to you, would you be open to revisit this 90 days from now?
Solve problems before they come up and if the CEO is a true leader, he will give you a higher pay.
Everybody knows who is high performance and who not.
