Use LinkedIn (or similar sites) to search for people in the same position you might be interested in. Contact them and ask if they can help you better understand "what do you do each day?", "what are the greatest challenges you face in this position?", "what skills are needed to be successful in this position?", what do you like the most/least about this position?". Also ask who is your manager and who else do you know that I may talk with to learn more about XX (the company, similar positions, etc.). Eventually, you'll find someone that says "you should talk with Sam, I think he's looking for someone with your experience." don't get discouraged if this takes weeks or months though. However, when you are successful in locating that next position, you will have developed a solid network of professionals that you can tap in the future. Always be open to reciprocating for those that helped you (pay it forward).
Blog Smith is inspired by the myth of Hephaestus in the creation of blacksmith-like, forged materials: ideas. This blog analyzes topics that interest me: IT, politics, technology, history, education, music, and the history of religions.
