             craft it, so spend time searching for a site that’s appropri-
             ate for your chosen sector. If you want to use the services

             focus on the industry-specific boards. These sites cater for
             virtually every sector, so I’ll pick out just a few key areas. If you
             work in IT, you can upload your C V on to the Jobserve website
