Look for our announcement soon regarding our new web page and other exciting developments.
Strategic networking is NOT code for “Find Me a Job!” although there are certainly more than a few job seekers who would like someone else to do their hard work and present them with a great offer on a silver platter.

Recruiting marketing firm Lever found that one in every 16 referred candidates is hired compared to one in every 22 referred from an agency and one for every 152 applicants who applied online. One in 152!
If you waited to start networking until you were terminated, then you have no choice but to use the inefficient and morale-crushing online process.
