Jobfox expanding, raises $20M
Jobfox, the “personal branding” site for job seekers that allows them to market themselves to potential employers, says it is doubling its sales staff in response to strong demand. Based in McLean, Virginia, the company also has sales offices in four major cities, and will be expanding to six more. It is also entering into a deal with Australian jobs site MyCareer. We’ve previously written about the strategies of Jobfox and a competitor called Trovix. A third company, Jobster, recently showed signs of weakness, replacing its co-founder and CEO with a more experienced exec. Draper Fisher Jurvetson led the $20 million round, with Menlo Ventures and New Enterprise Associates also participating.

Bulleted, of course. o List the most recent entry first, whether professional or educational. o Use action words to describe responsibilities and results: Managed, designed, supervised, etc. o Avoid errors in grammar, spelling, and spacing. o Computer proportional text spacing requires one space only after a . or a :. o Indicate quantitative accomplishments with numbers not percentages or use both. o For personal information in the U.S., you do not need to mention birth date or marital status. o Include information about your computer literacy and software fluency. o Include information about your other languages: Conversational Finnish. o Add information about awards, recognition, and the like. o Include information about your outside interests. o Avoid stretching the truth about any item you include.

Interview questions
The hardest part of an interview is sitting through the series of strange, tough and interesting interview questions. To help you with this process, there is an interesting website: take a look
Salary info
www.salary.com www.payscale.com
You should visit these sites to get an understanding about how much money you could / should be making based on your level of employment, type of job, location, etc. It is well worth a visit to these sites before going on any job-hunting, or any interview.
Notice to Bankers If you want to be compensated like a banker, then stay in banking. Every week, I talk to candidates who want to move from banking to private equity or venture capital and then tell me that they need the compensation to match what they make in their banking role. There’s a tongue-in-cheek recruiter’s joke about why the investment banks pay more – it’s to make you forget that you don’t like the work, or the people or not having A LIFE – and it works, until you remember, and that’s just about bonus time so they give you more money to help you forget! Seriously, banks have historically paid more than principal investment firms and, although that gap has narrowed at the very large PE shops in recent years, it remains true for the overall industry. Private equity and venture capital firms have different business models, different job responsibilities and usually more attractive work cultures. If you’re focused more on maximizing immediate cash comp, keep doing banking. If you are interested in improving your long term net worth, then accept the short term cash flow adjustment. If you’re focused on the long term opportunity, be prepared to stop thinking about what you “woulda, coulda, shoulda” made if you were a banker. more rules...
