I first shared David Murray‘s story here in January 2009. It’s still worthy of a listen, especially for new listeners who might have never heard it. I recently began reading The New Rules of Marketing and PR (affiliate link), and David’s story is in the section on “The New Rules of Job Search”.

Special thanks to our sponsor: PursuingMeaningfulWork.com.

In this episode of How I Got My Job (mp3, 27:21, 25.0 MB), David Murray shares how he got a job as an Assistant Webmaster, specifically making use of social media technologies. He also shares what it’s like to search for a job hundreds of miles away from the company’s main office.

If you have a job-hunting success story you’d like to share, please e-mail your contact information to successstories AT howigotmyjob DOT com, and we’ll get in touch to set up an interview.

Please share this episode with someone else who is looking for a job, and tell others about the show.

Thanks!
