I learned something huge about the Robo screening process used by all HR Depts now, PM me if you need the info. Do not want to publish it.
Nice job postings this Spring 2015
--------------------------------
This is the continuation thread to use as a central Job Networking hub since November 2003.
Online Communities such as AT are more important than ever during this severe economy downturn of 2008-2009.
There is no sign of the economy getting better despite Washington telling us the recession is over.
Update: Jan 2015 - The economy seems to have finally turned around.
If you are out of work post your skills, contact info etc.
Those that know of jobs please post them here.
This is a link back to the original to reach back to the many resources useful in the thread over time.
Thanks Mods for this thread sticky as it can be such an important tool
People place a post in here of where you are from and updates on how it is going.
It would show trends of how things are in particular areas of the Country. Whether you are new to the work force or having to adapt to change.
This truly shows the true power of the Internet and it has nothing to do with Computers, it is the Power of People coming together.
I would like to thank all of the great AT member for their postings of Job Openings.
Thank you everyone and best of luck.
Thanks to all who have posted Job postings

Special thanks to all those posting about job positions they become aware of and the Mods of Staff of AT for making it possible. Every job counts.

Well, I got 2 members of AT jobs at my place. They've been working here for at least 4 months now.
It's in the torrance, CA area.
If you are still looking for a job in this area (computer sales, basically), PM me!
Thank You Rufio. You brought tears to my eyes this morning times two.
I said from the beginning that if this thread just brings one job it is worth it.

I've used AT forums for a couple years, but this topic finally motivated me enough to register and get involved. There are alot of very qualified people who post here, and it is a good idea to try and leverage that if possible.
I find that the large-scale job sites have become almost unusable. I'll just give an example of something that happened to me last year when I was job hunting:
I received an email from a company that appeared interested in me and my skills... let's call the company 'Happy Elves' and the job site I was posting on we'll call 'ScaryCreature' (dot com). I spent far too much time preparing for a job interview with the Happy Elves, and when I arrived at the interview... the position was for selling life insurance to senior citizens.
At that point I enquired why I would be a good fit for the position, since my resume was clearly titled 'Senior Software Engineer'... and the interviewer replied, in all seriousness, "Well, your resume indicated interested in working with Seniors, and we thought you could be a great fit."
True story, but probably not uncommon.
To summarize, I support job hunting and networking at a more local level, like we find in AT forums.
