I think this can help you find that position you want.
Many people just aren’t aware how much LinkedIn is used by the top recruiters and employers who want to hire great
There are thousands of recruiters and employers hiring and placing senior people all around the world.
There are recruiters located in California placing staff in Toronto. I spoke to a recruiter the other day in New Jersey placing IT people in Malta. The world is a small place now, and the person who really wants a job needs to be available every where in the world even if they want a job located two blocks away.
I sent out a couple of articles about the how to apply some of the concepts in What Color Is Your Parachute? to LinkedIn.
The articles were well accepted (even with my typos) and has been posted and distributed and passed around.
I have received many requests to expand on the topic, so, I figured I would do a “Tuesday’s With Zale” webinar on it and get into more depth than the article did.
The articles are at http://www.zaletabakman.ca/2008/11/12/book-review-what-color-is-your-parachute/ and

I think its worth the time to sit and listen at your computer
