A major portion of your job search should be devoted to identifying potential jobs and employers who match your needs and to building your network to help you succeed. These targets are your most important focus. You need to build intel and define your battle order here. But every job search also includes “targets of opportunity. ” These are job ads you find online, contacts from recruiters or hiring managers you know, or leads you get from friends and other members of your network.
