First steps on the job hunt
Mood:  irritated

This is an attempt to rewrite the post I lost...

I took the first baby steps toward finding a new job. I added a summary and more details to my job responsibility description on my LinkedIn profile. I also sent out several recommendation requests. While I'm grateful for the four very nice ones already on my profile, it would certainly be helpful to have a few more. I also started looking at jobs posted on LinkedIn. There are a few Developer positions posted, but only one for which I might be qualified. My next stop will be... HudsonValleyHelpWanted.com! I already have a recently updated resume posted on there, but I know I'll probably need to post it on other sites as well. I can't be as lucky as I was the first-time-around, when I got the job on my very first interview!

Well, now it's time for me to do some housework... blah...

Hey Jen, it's me from college. Found your blog via google (me and Jon were talking about virtual chat world... and it came up).

 Anyhow... try Accenture. They have a nyc,boston & hartford office. They do consulting mstly Oracle and Java, but then I'm at a client doing perl.

Good luck. Don't see you on aim anymore, but then I'm rarely on.

Hey Jay! I'll take a look at Accenture. I was really trying to get a job closer to where I live, but that's looking less and less likely. Do you live in the city now, or do you telecommute? 

That's funny, I was looking at those virtual chat world links not too long ago. I haven't worked much at all with Java since then. Only for a Photo Upload tool on Cupid.com. I'm mainly looking at ASP.NET Developer jobs, since that's mostly what I worked with at Cupid.
