Sounds like you're willing to consider relocation - that's a definite bonus
for anyone looking for a CCNP. I have never needed a professional resume
writer, but I also used to do desktop publishing, so I might have a leg up
on the next guy in that regard. Basically, I just used the professional
resume template in MS Word and tweaked it to fit me.
As for places to look for work, I have not been able to beat
www.net-temps.com. I get nearly all my responses from there, though I also
get a handful from www.headhunter.net, and I usually also post on
www.dice.com, but have never even gotten a nibble from them. Fairly often I
get offers that include moving to a new area or even a new state. Once in a
while I'll even see other countries listed.
Basically, if you use these tools and have a resume that doesn't look like
it was written by your cat, and are open to relocation, you will *NOT* have
a bit of trouble finding a new position.

Subject: Looking for Career Resume advice
Hello,
I just completed my CCNP with a specialty in Security. I will soon be in
the market for a new job and was looking for a little direction. Has any
one use a professional resume writer and are they worth the money? Also,
the area I live in Milwaukee,WI is not exactly an IT hotbed, although it
does have some opportunity. Any areas that may be a better place to look
for good IT jobs? Up until this point I have been in a "resume building"
mode switching jobs as my education increases. I have self studied and paid
for all my certifications, so I have not been using employers for anything
but experience. I have just had to move along at each point were my
education is not used at the current place of employment. I certainly plan
on continuing my education. I plan on doing ATM and Voice over IP
specialties, then moving on to the long road to CCIE certification. I am
just looking for advice on getting a job that will be a good fit for me.
Any advice is certainly appreciated. Thank You for listening.
Eric
