Although the chief editor of HR Case Studies is not generally too keen on woolly advice and guidance on job seeking techniques, a very brief article in the current edition of People Management Magazine contains these very down-to-earth and eminently sensible tips for the job seeker of 2009:

- Seek out organisations and people who are bucking the trend.
- Believe that someone you meet soon will make the biggest difference, and work backwards from that.
- Ensure that your CV says everything you would if you were in the room.
- Plan for rejection - hiring decisions are often arbitrary and are not valid feedback.
- Job seekers and career changers: do you find these tips useful?
