With centralized and vended HR, in many, many places there isn't even anywhere to "go to." If you want a job at Home Depot, you can't go to your local Home Depot. All they do is tell you to apply online, and unless you know someone who works for them really well, you're SOL. About the only way to get a job today is to know someone, but even then, if you're of a certain age or credit rating or are currently unemployed, good luck.edit on 7/9/2011 by ~Lucidity because: fixed messed up reply-to tag...
Reaping what you sow is biblical.
Karma is new age. Same thing really,
but they come from two different sources.

if you don't follow up with phone calls

in person. You just have to do the
calling and leg work. I know that can
be difficult but over the years of helping
find employment for graduates or other
people I have found it works best.
