"By and large, the major difference between successful and unsuccessful
job-hunters is the way they go about their job-hunt..."
Richard Bolles (1991)
Many people do not have good job hunting skills. They are not experts at
locating job openings for which they may be qualified.
The reality is that up to 80% of jobs are never advertised.
In some market sectors the percentage may be even higher.
Question; Are you going to wait for something to happen, OR make something happen?
It is far better to be PROACTIVE in your job search than REACTIVE.
