Hmm.... perhaps it's my misunderstanding, although I don't use social
networking sites at ALL but I thought sites like
Linked in and Xing were just like professional versions of Facebook or MySpace
etc.
Since I've never worked anywhere as of yet obviously I won't manage to get any
contacts that way so all I can rely on is
adding them as friends. I guess in the Pro world it will be about 10 years or
so before I get noticed by anyone if at all!
Provided that companies and firms start recruiting again. I've had a lot of
interest but no one's recruiting and it's my
idea that everyday longer I am not in a job I loose my value a little bit more
as it's one day less experience??
Oh well tough times I guess and these things can't be helped.
