ain't just a fund
held by George W
Bush; it's also
something we look to
in a career mentor. Its just harder on the Net

says
Sheila Goldgrab, whose company,
Toronto-based Goldgrab Leadership
Coaching, helps clients (in person and via
email and conference calls) with job
transitions, life planning and career
advice. Goldgrab's advice: look for
sources you know and stick with your
favourites. Hers include
www.wiredwoman.com, a group that
mounts workshops for women in high
tech and has digitized downloadable
versions online. About.com's adult
continuing educations site
(adulted.about.com/education/adulted/)
is a great clearing house for articles and
links in mentoring and career coaching.
On the Job prowl? Identify the companies
you're most interested in - company sites
often have employment links, And health
care, engineering and high-tech industries
tend to recruit aggressively on the Net.
