Tap into that word of mouth job market through networking. Lack of job seeker focus. If everything is looking interesting to, you're in trouble. Take the time to refocus. Misuse of or unrealistic expectations from networking contacts.
Volume is the key to networking.
Employed people have told the most people clearly and precisely what they are looking for. If you're calling the same five contacts over and over, it's time to move on. You should have an active base of 25-30 contacts you are periodically checking in with. Constantly reassess what you are asking your contacts. Failure to market oneself effectively for specific jobs.
