Networking to a Job - Practical Advice

SoCal CTO

For some reason over the past week, I've been asked by three different people I know about job opportunities that might fit them. Since, I've given them the same advice, I thought it was worth putting in my blog. I personally believe that the best way to hire, find partners, and find a job is through a network.

LeanEssays

The Agile Manager

US based IT departments are facing turbulent times. The cost efficiencies achieved through global sourcing face a triple threat to their fundamentals: The USD has eroded in value relative to other currencies in the past 6 years 1 – this means the USD doesn’t buy as much global sourcing capacity as it did 6 years ago, particularly vis-à-vis its peer consumer currencies.

Lunch 2.0 in Santa Monica - And Other Events

SoCal CTO

I've been remiss in posting to this blog. Very busy on a couple interesting start-ups. More on them in a couple months. In any case, I went by Lunch 2.0 in Santa Monica last Friday. It was way too crowded (250 people in a tiny space). But saw a few folks I hadn't seen in a while and connected with a couple of new people.
