I'm still at it....job search goes on

As I said in my last post (is it true that 3 months have passed?), the process of meeting people and learning new things about companies and industries continues to intrigue me. I am fortunate to have developed an extensive network as a consultant and a recruiter so am able to reach in to many companies to get first hand perspective. It helps that I'm not too shy. Although I am focused on identifying needs when I speak with these people I am also open to the possibility that my conversation with uncover a new need that I can fill! ...I don't know where that optimism comes from but its there.

A new area that is holding my attention now is that I've begun to explore an idea about connecting very experienced people with companies that could use that experience. That seems like an obvious objective but you'd be surprised how limited that interconnect is when people have accumulated a good number of experience and years on the planet. There are those that have 20 + years of experience, but the language of the experience doesn't align easily with the new language and perhaps new tools. My goal is to translate some of those skills and some of those requirements so that these talented people find a rewarding next step in their careers. Stay tuned I'm working on the business plan as we speak
