<div>Greetings Sorcha,</div><div><br></div><div>1) Get your resume finished and have a number of different people look at it and consider their advice.</div><div><br></div><div>2) Post it on monster.com and a few other boards which may be more specific to your job area. In my case that includes DICE and a few others, since I am looking for a technical job (Electronics Engineer, Board and Systems Design). But most inquiries I've gotten, from companies or recruiters, have come from Monster. I'm trying to stay in the Austin, TX area which restricts me, but you don't have that problem. </div><div><br></div><div>3) Locate the local job search groups in your area. These may be government run (or supported) or non-profits. These are good sources for resume help, mock interviews and job hunting advice.</div><div><br></div><div>4) Use <a href="http://www.indeed.com">www.indeed.com</a> This is a web crawler which searches hundreds of job sites and a few company boards. It allows you to search for jobs by geographical area and by keywords.</div><div><br></div><div>5) It sounds like you might be a recent graduate. Whether you are or are not, often your alma mater will have some job search resources, so check with them.</div><div><br></div><div>6) You might want to look at <a href="http://www.vistaprint.com">www.vistaprint.com</a> as one source for cheap business cards. They only have about 12 basic designs and have a text advertisement on the back, but at $8.95 for 250 (incl. shipping) they are fairly cheap. You can pay more for more designs, to get rid of the advertisement etc, but do a few of those and you might as well go and get fully custom cards made. You can also buy the card stock, prepunched for cards, and make your own.</div><div><br></div><div>Unfortunately, I don't have any contacts within the libraries in the Austin area, but if you will email your resume to me, which will give me a better idea of what you are looking for, I will keep you in mind as I read over the job postings i see.</div><div><br></div><div>Stefan</div><br><div><html>On Apr 16, 2008, at 2:58 PM, Lady Sorcha Fraser wrote:</html><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Rafaella (et al),<br><br>Meant this to go to the entire list.<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br>I actually would love to visit that area someday.
