As recruiters and counselors will tell you, the most effective way to find a job in a particular field is to meet and talk with people already working in that field. Personal networking can find current or soon-to-be opening before they appear in the advertising media, and before the competition learns of them. However, those publications remain your friend. They can help identify companies that are hiring and the kinds of positions they are seeking to fill. They can play a key role not only in finding a job, but also in finding a direction in which to go with your personal networking activities.
