by Rich DeMatteo on February 16, 2010

JHCLast nights launch of #JobHuntChat was an incredible success, and I’d like to thank each and every participant.  Nicole, Jessica, and I had a great time co-moderating, chatting with you, and reading your brilliant responses.

#JobHuntChat’s purpose is to make sure that you’ll Never Hunt Alone Again. Judging by the number of participants and responses last night, I think we can now claim, “Mission Accomplished”.

Woo woo! Super excited about this! Have had some awesome DM’s and emails about #JobHuntChat. It’s nice to come together in a time when jobs are sparce and lay-offs are abundant. I think this will help build momentum for job seekers and for thsoe who may be considering a change.

I’m pretty excited to watch this little bambino grow!
