    $100K Silicon Valley Salary Job Search

     

    Have you ever wondered what it's like to look for a job in Silicon Valley?  What is the typical job search day for the highly educated, highly paid, and forward thinking?

     

    I sat down with a qualified, experienced project manager who worked for progressive companies like Yahoo!, Cisco, AOL/Netscape.  I asked him point blank what he does to find that $100,000+ job.

     

    Is it different than your search on Main Street America?

     

    Find out what he does...

     

    This is a series following the activities of a job seeker.  Watch the series at:

    Edwin Duterte of PinkSlipMixers.com is traveling the country asking job seekers what they are doing during the recession, career coaches what a job seeker can do to better their chances to find work and hiring companies what job seekers need to do to get hired at their companies. He also is trying to ask how President Obama's Stimulus and Job   Initiative is helping main street professionals.  Edwin Duterte is trying to be one of Oprah Winfrey's last TV Show guest to keep job seekers motivated to find a new career.

     

    PinkSlipMixers.com host pink slip parties and job search networking events across America.
