Hi Everyone! Thanks to everyone that responded to the salary survey. This Thursday night I plan to close the survey. So far I have less data than last year so...... If you work in the computer field or electronics field in Israel, PLEASE consider taking the 5 minute survey. http://www.cji.co.il/survey.htm New subscribers should note that I do not publish or give out the individual information. Census data and salary data is compiled only for the survey and not used in any other way. You can see previous survey results at: http://www.cji.co.il/docs.htm As in previous surveys, I only publish salary results of positions that had at least 7 responses. This means that the more responses I get, the more position related results I can publish. PLEASE do not wait till after midnight Thursday to send in your information. Once I start processing the data I will not use late emails. Thanks!!! I plan (B"H) to publish and mail out the results by February 25. ------------------------------------------------------------- I gave a short lecture about job hunting at the Jerusalem job fair. My main three points were: 1. Follow the financial news. Most companies that report new contracts or expansion start advertising after a few weeks. 2. Many jobs and resources on Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter. This page shows over 200 (I also included financial news sources) http://www.cji.co.il/support.htm 3. Network (online and offline) Meet people in the field. Maybe they do not know of a job at their company but they may know someone at another company that does. To everyone that I met at the lecture: I have a large email backlog. If I owe you an answer from the lecture hang in there. I will try and catch up this week. ------------------------------------------------------------- The orginal CJI FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) was published in 1993. I made a revised version in 2000. Before the job fair I read the 2000 edition and it is very outdated. I plan (B"H) to create a new one in March. ------------------------------------------------------------- For those that did not visit yet, I post on the CJI Facebook page news items that I think are worth reading. You do not have to join Facebook to read the page and links. http://www.facebook.com/cjicoil An example of a good posting is the article with a list of Israeli companies presenting at the 2010 Mobile World Congress The direct link to that article is: http://bit.ly/Israeli-companies ------------------------------------------------------------- I have a friend visiting me next week from the USA. I also need to work on the salary survey. I probably will not attend the annual Internet conference next week. If you go, please send me an email on how it was. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------- This week I sent out the Purim sites announcement.
