As for me, a professional recruiter specializing in placing sales and technical professionals who work with IBM technology, it means I need to start writing for DominoPower again because I need additional referrals. It also means that writing for DominoPower will be fun again as a better job market allows me to write upbeat articles that will help you advance in your career. Look for more career articles in coming issues.
