Most job-hunters confine themselves to traditional approaches like answering want ads (招聘广告) and working with recruiters. That's fine, but that's where your competition goes too. Anyone who tries something new and different--but not idiotic--will have a big advantage. Few job hunters write to career consultants, conference attendees, media people, and venture capitalists. 你也可以试一试。 Listen to the radio, read newspapers and watch television for items in your interest area. The media are in the information business. They are accustomed to trading ideas so don't be afraid to approach them. Write to business people featured in stories. Write to editors. Contact journalists who've written articles. 不要担心会出丑。送出去这封信你不会少什么,却有可能收获一份好工作。 |
