Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 4122794, member: 2844"] If you don't think that 90% of high level positions aren't filled by networking, you are kidding yourself. How do you think AD David Benedict came across Mora? It wasn't through the application process and my guess if the hiring was open to "applications only", Mora wouldn't have given it a thought. I fully understand your logic BL and while the application only process is all inclusive, there are many instances where people are prepped and interview very well but when hired they turn out to be duds or worse. I don't agree that a majority of people who network to hire in fact employ people that mirror themselves. You mention professors - do you think most universities in this country would hire a conservative leaning person over a liberal if it were one versus the other? [/QUOTE]
