Best Tips on Finding the Job

OK, fellow boarders, I need your best tips on finding the job. Not just a job, but that job that you'd stay at forever if they'd let you. I'll be in IT if that helps shape your recs. Basically, I want your tips and resources for finding the job and for negotiating demands. Book recommendations are good, but I'm also interested in your anecdotal resources both from the job seeker and employee seeker (nee hiring manager) POV.

GTD software

Have you tried FrontHunter's software? (If you use a Mac, like me, I just use it on XP using VMWare).

Also, I'm trying to get like-minded people like yourself to share tips on how to be more productive about the job search process with my new forum site— http://www.jobphish.com/digress/.

Feel free to post away- it's new, so don't be shy about making a new post =)

also, feel free to drop me a line, I appreciate feedback. I'd like to help out people in the job process in anyway I can.

Cranking

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
