It is believed as much as 80% of jobs are never advertised. These positions go to people through other means - usually networking, headhunting and referrals.
Of course this can make life difficult for someone like myself who has only been in the UK a short time and doesn't really have a local network. There are ways to grow a network and I am taking those steps. But it can be a long, slow process.
I have decided to take the slightly unusual step of promoting myself as a potential employee. No, I haven't splurged out and bought time on one of the TV stations, instead I've created a web page. Check it out here.
And if you know of anyone who needs a hard-working administrator, please don't hesitate to share the page with them.
