Need a job-search tool to find opportunities beyond Monster, Career Builder and craigslist?
Add informational interviewing to your repertoire.
Informational interviewing involves finding individuals who are in the field you are interested in and meeting with them by phone or in person. It鈥檚 not about asking for job leads 鈥� it鈥檚 about gaining information about what the person does and about her or his company.
An additional benefit of these interviews is employers get to know you and what your interests are. It can result in job leads or even job opportunities.
