There are millions of Job Openings Every Month

When you are searching for a job, know that you aren't as powerless as you may think you are. The job hunt goes both ways. You have the power to ask questions as much as the employer does.

The media tends to always report the depressing statistics and withhold the hopeful information. This gives us as job hunters the wrong impression of the current job market. 

When you are looking for a job, here are a few things you should know:

1. Job hunting is not a science; it's an art. You have to find creative ways to set yourself apart.
2. Job hunting is always mysterious. You never know what will work!
3. There is no "always wrong" way to hunt for a job or to change careers.
4. There is no "always right" way to hunt for a job or to change careers.
5. Job hunting is, or should be, a full-time job.
