Most people begin looking for a job by polishing their resume and distributing copies around the town however, this takes time and effort.
A much faster and seemingly popular trend is networking. In fact up to 60% of all jobs are found by networking.

You can take the casual approach by developing contacts through family and friends and ask for information or advice in regards to finding employment. Phone calls and email also help to network, however take care with spelling and grammar if you wish to make a good impression and keep it to the point.

Formal networking is a different approach whereby you could attend an association meeting or event. You will find that many people have the same goals as you and will be happy to exchange business cards.
