In other parts of the country, people often work only with one recruiter.

In Silicon Valley, it's normal to work with multiple recruiters
simultaneously.

She should decide what she wants to do and then focus the resume on that.
Either she does Windows C++ developement or she does PDA development, but
she should choose a specific industry. If she sends in a resume that is
scattered over several industries, managers may think that she's not too
skilled in any of them.

Your friend's friend should clean up her resume and make sure it matches
Silicon Valley style: list the skills and tools at the top, list the last
three years of positions (title, month/year, description of projects, and
list of tools used) and education at the end. Include her name, telephone
number, and email address (I've gotten resumes with no contact information.)
Have several people read it and make corrections. She should then register
her skills (or post her resume) to www.dice.com , www.vjf.com , and
www.headhunter.net . The Dice site alone will propagate her resume to some
700 recruiters and HR people.
