In Reply To: I am having the same issues. I have an MBA and am an experienced Contracts Manager/Negotiator. I can not get an interview. I have been looking tirelessly for the last 5 months and have only seen my work go into a black hole!!
Message: If you've done contract negotiations for tech or consulting firms, I just saw on the MS job site that they have a contracts position open. I think it was somewhere on the East Coast. If you know anyone who works for MS, do a search for the positon on their careers site, send it to your contact and ask him/her to submit your resume to the hiring manager. You can submit your resume online, but it will go into the black hole. Smaller companies are more likely to reply to online resumes than large companies.
