Do you remember this job hunting thread?

<p>I have been searching this forum for hours for a job hunting thread from a few months back where one poster (and no, I can't remember who) gave some very good advice about networking by calling a contact and asking for an informational interview -not asking for a job, just talking about that person's job or company...than asking the person if they could give you the names of two more people to talk to, etc.
Does anyone remember the thread? Or having been one of the helpful people who contributed to it? Thanks for using your brain cells to aid mine!</p>

<p>Thanks Denise and lmnop, good advice there but the one I’m looking for was this spring some time.<br>
I may need to start another titled "telling kid “don’t start waiting tables yet, keep searching for a career track job !”.</p>

<p>You can always just continue one of the other threads. I post in the lmnop thread about once or twice a week on employment reports, unemployment reports, hiring strength and how my son is doing in his job hunt. The monthly employment number comes out on Friday and I’ll post comments when it comes out.</p>

<p>I think this might be it. Post#10 speaks about informational interviews.
