How do you find your dream job in a down economy? What are some job-search tips for people in search of meaningful employment in a recession? A recent college graduate called me, and got me thinking about the 10 pieces of advice I’d offer someone trying to do a guerilla Job Search. When I graduated in 91 it was a crappy economy, so you learn some fortitude (unlike the folks that graduated during the bubble in 1999.

Forget the traditional letters to recruiters, newspaper ads, and job boards. Too much competition there… it’s more efficient to network, interview well, use creative approaches, persist without being annoying. Here are 9 of my 10 tips. The one about interviewing well got me the most passionate, and it became a separate video (will post this week). Seriously- we’ve all been on one or both ends of a bad interview, and I feel so sorry for people that don’t know the basics on that.

Hope this helps! It’s free, anyway. Any tips for the rest of us?
