When you're searching for a new position, the more people you talk to, the more likely you are to land a new job. To stay focused on your personal networking, take a few sheets of lined paper and number lines one through 150. Each time you mention your situation to someone and get that person's contact information, cross off a number. You'll be surprised how much this type of casual networking will pay off. For instance, if you attend a religious service that's followed by coffee, cookies and casual conversation, working your way around the room talking about your desire to find a new job could yield 20 names. We bet you'll never make it 150 -- you'll get a job before you get there.
