As my network grows I have less time to spend with each individual. Either in-person or on-line. It seems to me that as we grow our social/professional network we become less connected. Sure, we have the electronic tools to send out and exchange messages 24 hours a day, but do are we really connected or is that just lie for our ego. I agree that the face-to-face meetings are important. However, it seems to me that the more we attempt to connect to everyone around us, we actually become less connected to anyone.

People that come in to drop off resumes are annoying but people that you may connect with after work either socially or within an industry networking setting are likely to not be annoyed at all. Job seeking is one of the most depersonalized aspects of life. I don't know when we'll see that change unfortunately.

I mean, I could delve into this further but really, it is the first passive communication system. Your point about staying in touch over distance is something I missed.

I know it seems like a stupid question, but at my last full-time job (which was about a year and a half ag0), I remember my supervisor sifting through her inbox with so many resumes for an opening that she didn't want to deal with anyone or anything, not even on the phone. She thought the people who came in person to speak to her were just "sucking up" and wasting her time. I guess I've been scarred about trying to make some kind of personal impression on a potential employer ever since that experience. Does this count for the job search, too?
