I am very close to wearing that sandwich board and walking down the high street touting for business, so to speak... Recruitment agencies and the like are unindated with job seekers and its proving to be a battle field. I have just designed a brochure to be distributed into any type of industry that I have had experience in, just in the hope that they could be looking for someone. They do say persistance pays off, but 8 months on my patience is somewhat running out. So, anyone looking for a first Class experienced Business Development Manager, Sales Manager, Marketing Manager etc. etc. Regards Trisha Well having been made redundant during this world economic crisis I feel that I am, as well as many 1000′S of others, experiencing so many disappointments whilst looking for that perfect job.

It will be interesting to see how big of a role social networking sites will play in identifying college grads as recruiting continues to evolve.

I wrote about dusting off one's <a href="http://bullseyeresumes.blogspot.com/2008/09/looking-for-work-dust-off-your-online.html" rel="nofollow">online persona</a> recently as well. Had a session with college athletes recently and many were surprised that employers were looking at their private "stuff" on the world wide web. Once we discussed what "private" really means on the internet, I could tell that many would be making some changes. Marcie Hi Lindsey,

This is definitely a positive spin on a social networking site that has a lot of college students missing opportunities because of inappropriate behavior. I wrote about dusting off one’s online persona recently as well.
