It may not be easy but it takes research and work to find good jobs. If you talk to enough people and ask for advice and research the advice, you are ahead of the game. Nothing great is easy. It takes work, plus you may learn something new and by networking you are building your references.

They network constantly as do most NCOs. Knowledge is power, contacts are sources for referrals.

Knowing people and having a network is vital.

You need to self promote or no one will see you. I didnt start getting job offers until I was promoting my business. That was my AH ha! momment.
