I know it can get tricky to do long-term stuff when you really just need to get your paycheck back, but I challenge you to think of everything you do in todays job search as a part of your long-term career management strategy. Dont make the rookie mistake of throwing everything away once you land your job.  Youll need it all contacts, strategies, etc. in all future job searches.
