Help finding a new job
There is a long story behind this so I will keep it short.
I recently got re-org'd out of a great job. This is the second time in 12 months by the same CEO (Long story)
I am looking for help/advice/leads from the great group here.
My background is in High Tech sales (Software, hardware, etc) and management mainly in the transportation/trucking industry. For the last 5 years I have covered from 15 states to most recently the entire US. I have an impressive list of customers and references. I have over 15 years of sales/management/business ownership experience.
Your help and support are very much appreciated in advance.
Peace-

Call all of your contacts and references and let them know you are seeking new employment.
When I got laid off in April, I made contact w/ just about everyone I knew in the field - including old classmates. I went through the phone book and hand delivered resumes all over town. I had a job offer within 3 weeks of being laid off, and started a new job ~ 5weeks after being laid off - and I'm still getting calls from places I dropped off resumes (I got a call Monday that I passed on to my old boss).
