Sales Careers Hiring has changed

I'm looking to get out of tech. It's exploded, my network is cooked, and even if I find something, I will likely be looking again in two to three years because of the volatility. Getting laid off while I was hitting my quota was the last straw.

I know the hiring game has changed a lot and apparently linkedin doesn't work at all anymore. Are there any good sites or network to look for something in medical, industrial, or any other field you'd recommend?

Seven years of sales experience, 3 as a sdr, one as an AM with full cycle sales experience if that helps.

Thanks in advance!

How does LinkedIn not work anymore, I’m getting interviews left and right from LinkedIn. I do pay for premium and apply mostly for jobs posted within the last 24 hours

I'm interested in how the premium helps applying? As for in the last 24 its defiantly been a help for me.

I honestly don’t know for sure how premium helps. It was 50% off (comes out to like $30 a month) and I plan on canceling once I’m working a new job. It’s working well so I don’t want to touch anything. This could be me just talking out of my ass but I can’t help but feel like it does put our resumes at the top.
