No matter how great my scholastic records were when I was in college,IT Job Hunting Tips Articles I was surprised at how difficult it is to find a job, especially if you are looking for a career in an IT company. This is because most of the companies are on the lookout for someone who already has enough experience. If you're in this kind of situation, you could try a number of techniques of job hunting. You need to think outside the box to get that dream job.

An avenue for job hunting many people rarely considers are the various social networking sites such as LinkedIn.com. LinkedIn lets you connect with companies around the world who may be looking for someone to fill vacant positions in their organizations. You can also use LinkedIn to upload a copy of your resume online.

Twitter is another place to find a job. Most people uses micro-blogging like twitter to connect with people sharing the same interest as them. Try searching for the twitter page of the companies that you would like to work for. If this is not possible, try to find the twitter page of any of the executives of the company that you would like to work for. This way you will have a chance and avenue to introduce yourself and skills to them.

You can also try to join and actively participate in various professional organizations within your area. This could help expand your network and increase the chance to establish a connection with someone who has a need for someone with your background and qualifications. In addition, professional organizations help to establish themselves as an authority in the said field.
