[quote=Anonymous]I have a job with a really sought-after employer. Every single time we post a job opening, somebody I barely know or, in some cases, don't know at all, contacts me about it. If it were a former colleague whose work I know and respect, I'm happy to put in a good word to get the resume to the top of the pile. If it's a person I went to college with 100 years ago or worse, a friend of a friend who found me through LinkedIn, calling me is not going to help. In short, there is a big difference between networking by keeping in touch with former colleagues and networking by trying to chat up anybody you can find who has a job you want. [/quote]
