Day 41 Sourcing Tip: “The Reddit Ripple” Strategy 
Reddit isn’t just a rabbit hole—it’s a goldmine for passive talent. Instead of searching for candidates directly, track niche subreddits where professionals share advice, side projects, or frustrations. These breadcrumbs often lead to high-potential profiles.

🔍 Here’s how to ripple out:
– Start with subreddits like r/devops, r/dataengineering, or r/UXDesign 
– Use Google operators like site:reddit.com “I’m hiring” or “just launched my portfolio” 
– Follow comment trails—users often drop GitHub links, personal blogs, or Twitter handles 
– Use tools like Pushshift or RedditSearch.io to surface older, high-value posts 

💡 Why it works: Reddit users tend to be candid and community-driven. You’re not just sourcing skills—you’re sourcing mindset.
