Thanks Jim, that’s a really smart approach. It reminds me of someone I heard about, I think it was about a year ago, who got unemployed due to the recession. He was looking for a new job (I believe he was a computer engineer or something) and what he did was the following. Did you ever Googled your own name? Chances are your did. The guy figured that the SEOs of those big companies he wanted to get a job at did that regularly. So he got himself an Adwords account and targeted the names of these SEOs he wanted to work for. So when those people Googled their own names they would see his ad in which he asked those SEOs to hire him! I believe he even got multiple job offers eventually.
