The same topic: Friends & Jobs. I find it very difficult to get a job through an advertisment in the newspaper or a web site. To get a job you must 'know someone', be a friend, be a former co-worker or similar. In theory in a liberal market the personal relationships aren't supposed to matter that much. However, when you come down to practice, it's usually the opposite. You always have to know someone to form your well-being in business.
