In Reply To: I'm looking for a job and feel like the online application process and resume submission is pretty futile. I get the impression that people generally snag interviews by knowing people at the company they??d like to get an interview at. Unfortunately, I haven??t been much of a networker. My friends aren??t in my industry (software development) and can??t help me out much. So how does one get a good job without knowing having good contacts?
Message: You are right - it is a bear. I agree with the previous responder on approaches. You may also want to join some message and networking boards, such as LinkedIn.com.
