Or unless you know people who deal with lots of people. I get jobs for
people all the time, and vice versa. If I was impressed working with you,
I'll recommend you to people looking to hire. The same as any other brand. :-)

Be aware that even if you're the perfect fit for the job, *with* a PhD and
30 years experience, this is *still* how it works. 90% of the time you hear
nothing back. Of the rest, 90% of the time it's an instant rejection. And
that's for jobs that practically list you by name.
If you want a new job, send three or four resumes a day for a month.
