Networking for a job

Last summer, I got incredibly lucky. After the spring semester ended, I was planning on going home and going back to the Supermarket I worked at in high school. A few days later, my dad lets me know that the company he works for needs college students to test their new software. It was a great job with great pay for a summer job, and I learned a lot about IT.

Its March and I still haven't found a job for the summer. I doubt something like the testing job is going to happen again. I'm going to start taking the advice in this article from Boston.com. It'll be tough, but I think I can do it.

Before I embark on that journey, I just posted my resume on Monster.com. Hopefully that works out. By the way, I really hate that website, way to many obnoxious ads.

I looked into some websites for business networking, like LinkedIn.com, and I'm going to them a try. If enough of my friends sign up, I think it could end being extremely useful once I graduate.
