Good luck with the job hunting and don't look too sheepish at interviews.

Thanks, Vernon. But posting my resumé on line proved pretty useless as I must have posted it over 300 times in the last 4 months that I've been unemployed. Apply, apply....no reply!!

I'm hoping for personal referrals through the NZMA.
