Online job searching has evolved from a novelty into an essential career tool in the 10 years since I co-wrote one of the earliest guide books to using the new technology.

It helps to separate the myths that have evolved along with this multi-million dollar business from the realities that can help both job seekers and recruiters get better results from internet job search tools.
