This may seem somewhat unrelated to the job search but I thought it may provoke some food for thought. Where would we be today without Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, or Craigslist for our job search? Most of us seem to rely on these social networks and forget that searching for jobs the old fashioned way still exists. I’ve discussed this before, but what happened to a simple phone call or meeting with a professional? I’m sorry but sometimes email just doesn’t cut it.
This weekend I challenge you to think of alternative methods of searching for a job. Using social media as a tool is cetainly beneficial but allowing it to take over an entire search may make you feel like you’re running in circles.
On another note, You Don’t Get to 500 Million Friends Without Making a few Enemies will hit theaters this October.
