LOL, Moonliner.

That's another thought. I think my agnostic a$$ will be fine, mainly because I appreciate these sorts of differences. It probably doesn't hurt that I have a few Mormon members of my own family. I should go with g-ma to a Christmas party or two and pass the word around... hehe. :)

Humm, perhaps someone should start a service to help individuals "tailor" their myspace, facebook, general online presence to reflect well on them to perspective employers....

Apply and also, might not be a bad idea to also speak with a headhunter or three to see what's out there and who will go to bat for you.

A headhunter, you say?

Easy. Just make it private and remove all photos involving drunken exhibitionism.

Besides making your MySpace profile friends only, you can make it unsearchable by name. If you use that option and an email address no one knows you're pretty well hidden (until you're found via friends lists).

Get on LinkedIn if you haven't already.

I haven't found any real use for LinkedIn.

Just tell everyone you know that you're looking and what you're looking for. You'll be totally shocked that some people you thought couldn't have cared less about you will jump up to help, and others you thought were totally in your corner will refuse to mention you to anyone. So, because you can never tell who will have a connection - you just have to tell everyone.

I agree hiding is easy. I defy anyone here to find my myspace page.



However, I was thinking more like:

Links from "friends" with loads of impressive titles gushing about your work ethic and coming to you for help.

References to your time helping poor children in Africa (complete with photos)

A list of very impressive awards you have won from very real sounding companies (with their own web pages of course).

You know. Complete Bullspit.

Come on - no one thought my "headhunter" was even a bit funny. So sad...

I believe I am on LinkedIn, thanks to a few of my friends from this very message board.

I forgot about LinkedIn.

Add that to my winter break to-do list.
