I was pleasantly surprised to read an article in today's Wall Street Journal promoting the use of strategic volunteering for those in job search mode. As the author notes, this methodology of volunteering can provide valuable contacts and networking opportunities. If you or your friends are in job search or career transition - remember to utilize strategic volunteering as one of your avenues for success.

Thanks for the post. Your blog is helpful and very relevant as many people look to volunteering in this economic situation. Recently, Grainne Madden blogged about the importance of strategic volunteering to increase efficiencies, over on the O2 ideas room.
