Most success is ‘won’ in the first few months as the patterns and practices one creates when newly in the job set the stage for success or failure. And not surprisingly, most are lost in the first few months, even if the person doesn’t go for 12-18 months. How do you decide to accept and start a new position? What will you do in the first few weeks to ensure you succeed?

Happy Holidays to all. Utilize this time to reflect and start to move towards the individual that you want to be in this world. - Any Resume Consulting Staff.

Andrew Hudson of the Denver Examiner takes a close look at the job search aspects from an online perspective including such online search giants as Monster.com and others.

Up until a few years ago, looking for a job meant scanning the help wanted section of your local newspaper.

Then, in 1999, Monster.com was created and marketed as the newest and best way to search for a job. With its turbo-charged database, it allowed professionals to quickly search for specific jobs in local communities across the nation. For job seekers and employers looking for skilled talent, it was an online matchmaking service whose time had come.

Soon, other national online job search sites appeared. Sites like Hotjobs, Career Builder, Jobing and others touted new and different job seeking services. Today, there are an estimated 40,000 online job sites!

So what happened? The Monsters of the world ended up becoming (quite literally) ‘Monsters’!

Consider that Monster.com today claims to serve over 63 million job seekers every month. At any one time, there are 1 million jobs listed on their site and over 150 million resumes in their database.
