I have been away from my blog for too long, and have missed everyone.  First of all, I want to extend many thanks to my Rave Resume clients for a great first quarter.  January is always an exciting and positive time of the year. 2010 is no exception.  It is a fresh start on the job search and a new beginning to finding the ultimate job. How did it get to be March already?

Lots of good news in the general job market these days. Optimistic reports are coming out, and more companies are looking to add employees.  Not all new positions arepermanent positions, as the staffing industry is seeing some strong numbers across the board too. Robert Half and Manpower issued their CEO survey results, and they seem to be encouraging for 2010. From what I can see, Information Technology is leading the recovery.

With that said, my client profile is not the unemployed, butthe under employed and the proactive job seeker. It is a great time to leverage your current skill set and shop around for new opportunities. A solid consulting gig is not a bad thing in this market if you are looking totransition into another career, so don’t be afraid to do a little research and keep those kinds of positions on your radar.

Happy Hunting,
