I'm quietly (well, not so quietly now that I'm posting here I guess ...) testing the waters for a new job. I've posted the resume on Workopolis, called a few headhunters, had a couple of headhunters call me.

So today I receive this email from toronto@execcareerhunt.com:

It almost sounds legit, but the spider senses are still tingling. So I did a little digging and came across this link:

Anyhow, hopefully this post might be useful to anyone else out there looking for a job.
