# Portland talent takes to Twitter to find that next tech gig

It’s nothing new to announce that you’re looking for a new gig. And maybe it’s just happenstance. Or maybe it’s just the new year. But I’ve had a couple of tweets in [my stream](https://twitter.com/turoczy) lately featuring talented folks who are looking for a new job. Likes and retweets will only go so far — and knowing how critical finding good talent is — I thought I’d share a few of them here. (And if there are others I should include, please let me know.)

> Hello friends! It’s 2019 and I’m still on that job hunt. If you have any companies you think are worth looking into as a junior, please DM and let me know!
> 
> Looking for:
> Supportive team
> Mentorship 
> Good benefits

> Friends! I want to get the word out again that I'm looking for work. 👋 I want 2019 to be a great year with a great job. 📈 To make it easier, let me layout what I'm looking for, what value I can bring, and some other details in a thread.
