JOB SEARCH RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Create a profile on linkedin.com and link up to everyone that you know, especially people in your industry, including instructors, career service advisors, and any friends you have that are already working in your industry. LinkedIn is the most widely used website for employers.


2. Clean up your Facebook / MySpace page, make sure it looks professional, and make sure the picture of you is professional. Employers do look up potential employees. Watch what you say when you update your page.
