In Reply To: I am an MBA with 7 years experience in IT management and am looking for a job. I have had a lot of career mgt firms call me up saying that they can get me a job. Their fees are between $1000-$1500. They essentially send your resume to a wide network of managers in the industry. Has anyone tried this and does it work?
Message: Ask yourself, is it really worth it? There is nothing special they do that you can't do yourself. They WILL NOT help you get a job any faster.
