Anyone know any Seattle area career counselors?

In My Humble Opinion
1

Basic situation is this: I want to try to find a job that makes more money. I have been doing Technical Support for close to 8 years. While I am not a network administrator I do know quite a bit about them, as well as a host of software thingies.

I currently work for a small company that is struggling and not only have I not had a raise in 2 and a half years, I have received a pay cut (10%) a year ago (5% of which was recently restored).

So, I really want to do something about it but am just not having luck finding another job through conventional means. Any suggestions?

No, really, I’m suffering here.

3

Sorry, no suggestions for you Binary. But say, can I have your old job when you find a new one?

Yeah, I do know that in some respects I am one of the lucky ones. Still, I am basically using my overdraft protection as a line item of my budget.

Ditto, subsitute Miami area, and add “who is knowledgeable enough to critique a technical resume intelligently and provide interview training”.

I have no idea if this guy is actually good at getting you a new career or if he’s more of a cheerleader, but he’s based in Seattle: Curt Rosengren, Passion Catalyst. I’m only familiar with him through his blog.
