You'll find a lot of the tech scene (in Edinburgh at least) go to Tech Meetup[0] every 2nd Wednesday of the month, and you'll soon hear who's hiring in the introduction go-around. Hell, it's a rare occasion when neither Skyscanner or Amazon aren't hiring more developers. [0]: http://techmeetup.co.uk/
I'm led to believe the Glasgow TMU is pretty lively as well, although I've never been.
I go semi regularly, would recommend. Plug: check out my site http://opentechcalendar.co.uk/ for more :-P
