Job Leads 4-26-10

The following are job leads that were sent to me to share with each of you.   I have no relationship/affiliation with any of these companies.   If you are interested in any of the positions please contact the person listed on the job or apply online.  As I mention in my articles, your highest chance of success with any of these positions is to network your way into these companies and talk to the person responsible for doing the hiring.  That is the most important step in the process even if it means cold calling.

  If you would like to be added to the distribution list for either the articles or the job leads, send me an email with “ADD ME TO YOUR DISTRIBUTION LIST” as the subject line.

  Is your resume getting lost in the black hole?  Are you networking but not seeing any results?  In my 15 years of experience recruiting for both Fortune 500 Companies as well as executive search firms, I have reviewed over 40,000 resumes, conducted 5000+ interviews, and negotiated over 700 offers.  My name is Steve Gray with Career Search Strategies, ask me how to put that experience to work for you by helping you develop a plan to jump start your job search.
Thanks,

Steve Gray
