-- http://asktheheadhunter.com/,  an advice site from former recruiter Nick Corcodilos. -- http://indeed.com/,  a job search indexer. -- http://SusanIreland.com, her favorite source of résumé advice and templates.
-- http://cover-letters.com/, a free collection of 1,000 sample cover and consulting letters. -- http://Job-Hunt.org, "If it isn't in RileyGuide.com, look here."
-- http://linkedin.com/.  Create a profile, look for current and former colleagues and connect with people.
-- Your local newspaper's web site. Job openings are still posted there so visit it often for jobs and local career advice. -- Web sites for any professional, industry or trade association related to the work you do or the work you want to do. Find them through http://associationjobboards.org/.
