Your best way to a new job is through someone you know who values what you have done in the past. Where they can confidently recommend you and have your work reflect well on them.

So we have to build relationships; optimization is icing on the cake.

You are right – there are many aspects to job searching, and being where the employers go is an important piece of that. I don’t agree that “more is better” in terms of the number of sites to have an account. I am more of a “quality of quantity” fan. A combination of networking, having a terrific resume and job search know-how will certainly fuel the job search foward!

You can have a great resume, but if you don’t have the right connections, you will get nowhere. especially for people, like me, who are first year college students, who don’t have enough, if any, work experience in a desired field.

With the amount of sites like careerbuilder.com, linkedin.com, and monster.com, you can’t have an account with only one or two of them. You have to create accounts with as many site as you can. This is the only way that I have found that really works.
