Job Hunting

If you've decided it's time to move on to a new company (or didn't have a choice), there's a lot to think about. Where do you begin? If you're tempted to scramble like mad to create or update your resume, hold on. That's probably not the best place to start. How do you find jobs? Is the Internet your one-stop shop? Sorry, but you'll probably be disappointed. Where are the good employers? Can recruiters help you? There's nothing they can do for a lot of people. Are you one of them? What about salary, references and cover letters-which by the way, are one of the last things you'll create when you're job hunting.
