Looking for a job involves a lot of detective work.  Like any Agatha Christie character, you constantly follow clues.  You interview many people.  You start down promising paths, learn they’re not going anywhere, and then try new ones.

Hercule Poirot thought he was the greatest detective in the world and haughtily refused all help, but modern jobhunters can and should benefit from observing how others tackle the jobhunt mystery.  You won’t look for a job exactly the way someone else does, because you are you, but you can learn from the experience and ideas of others.

On that note, take a moment to check out this “Job Search Tips from the Experts” feature from Career Rocketeer.  You might get some clues.
