Smart Job Search

Most people begin their job search by saying to themselves, "I've had it. I think it's time to make a change." They know what they don't want but haven't taken the time to figure out what will satisfy them or what will please them.

Organizing a job search is not about flipping resumes to job ads like a cook in a fast food restaurant, nor is it only about what you want to do. It also involves careful thought and understanding about how your experience "fits" the job market.

In addition, you must know who you are and what motivates you as well as what criteria are important enough to be uncompromising about and on which ones you're willing to be flexible.
