And now I know people that are feeling the job-market effects of last falls decision to let Lehman Brothers fail.
The jobmarket is impossible with hundreds of applicants for each advertised job.

Another strategy is to apply for those open positions that aren’t advertised. Unsolicited application.
At least then it’s possible to stand out from the crowd. You are the crowd of one.
Make it a special crowd, make sure your asset is loud and clear.

Focus on the one thing that makes you special, makes you unique. Your Key Performance Indicator.
Enjoy!
