The dark ages are over ALL the jobs are on the internet.

Do you mean the internet is the best way to find a job? If you do, I have to laugh. Every resume I sent out through Hotjobs, Monster, Headhunter etc... went into a bottemless pit. This was proven to me during one of my recent temp jobs. I was working in a HR dept. doing some "filing". What I was filing were the resumes they received from just 1 Hotjobs posting. There were thousands and thousands of them. I was told to "file" them all in a giant cardboard box and stuf them in a giant closet. I don't know if the actual job that solicited those resumes was ever even filled.

I posted my resume on Hotjobs YESTERDAY....today I got a call from an agency who had a job for me ....only problem was it was a little to far to travel for me.

SO...how much is unemployement? I'd like to know since I will be joining the list for the first time in my life.

I went to an open house the other day....sure I'd get one of the 25 positions. Well...there were over 100 people there......when I got there their list of qualifications for the little salary made me laugh out loud. I don't expect to get called. So it is gonna be tough.....I will have to find an under the table job somewhere.....maybe picking oranges.

I read somewhere that employers fill 10% of job vacancies thru the job web sites, so if you look for a job, spend only 10% of your time on job sites. Networking is where its at!
