Houston Job Search Links

(This is a work in progress. I’ll be cleaning this up substantially over the next week).

If you follow this blog, you may have noticed that I am out of work. Boo hoo. (Well, this data point and this data point encourages educated bastards like myself).  Despite the existence of  career sites like monster, Craig’s list and Yahoo/Career Builder, it actually is hard to find good information about what companies exist in the Houston area.

Looking for resume help? if wandered into this web page and are looking to pay someone to write a topnotch resume, feel free to contact me. (idiotprogrammer at fastmailbox.net 713 893 3424). Seriously, my  resumes are my gift to humanity. I’ve given workshops about resume writing, written resumes for ex-cons and homeless people (just for the fun of it!)  and worked in vocational counseling for 4 years. For templates, see Google Docs’s wonderful collection of free resume templates.
