After your first few jobs, how did you learn about new positions? Through your friends.
Working from home is cool if you’re at the top of your field and just coasting. But if you want to get ahead, you’ll need friends and contacts — face-to-face contacts that you make in the office.
LinkedIn, Monster, Indeed — people see my resume and send out feelers, too.
I got my current job, ironically, through somebody I used to work for face to face. I called him on the phone, he referred me to somebody in the know, and on May 8, 2000, I started my position.
