Favorite Job Search Posts of 2009

Posted by : Barbara Safani No Comments

I’ve blogged before about the fact that I kept a diary for many years. And at the close of each year I used to re-read my diary to reflect on what had happened over the course of the year to look at my successes and failures, beginnings and ends. I always spotted a few entries where I would think to myself “What was I thinking” and others that brought back a wonderful memory of an experience on a particular day.

So I thought it made sense to look back on my posts from 2009 and pick out a few that hold the most meaning for me. These “top 10” were not necessarily my most popular posts but they were all posts that connected me to some important part of my life, my past, or  family and  friends, so they have special meaning to me. And hopefully there is a nugget or two of job search advice that you can use as you forge ahead into 2010. Happy New Year!
