In these economic times, finding a job can be daunting, even in the software industry, which has fared better than most. (Today, it was announced that the official unemployment rate in the U.S. is 10.2%, the highest level in 25 years.) A job search can be harder if you're a software developer <EM>of a certain age</EM> (I turn the big Five-Oh in January). </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.polyglotprogramming.com/2009/11/6/cultivateyourcareertoday"><P>Despite these obstacles, this was the easiest and most rewarding job search of my career. I had the good fortune to receive several excellent job offers. I regret that I had to turn down all but one of the opportunities. (I start at <A href="http://www.drwtrading.com/">DRW Holdings</A> after Thanksgiving.)</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/CF444494-ECC4-4A5F-BB79-F520333A0696/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
