Samsung Galaxy Note - Super cool Android phone

The overall look of the mobile phone looks huge when you are comparing with a regular size phone such as HTC Sensation / Samsung Galaxy. I had a chance to play around a bit with this phone and this is a super cool phone. You get used to the size of it quicker than you think because of its attractive UI features and performance. I would not expect much from an android tab if I owe this phone since this is nearly a half smartphone half tablet pc.

Best Job boards for a local job hunter

This is with related to my previous blog on tips in job hunting.(http://dushseven.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/key-points-for-job-hunters.html)

 Here I have listed one of the most useful job boards based on my experience which some of you might already know. I have purposely omitted some job boards such as reed.co.uk since the hit rate is far below the expectation. All these boards are quite useful and worthy a daily visit. (The first one is solely for IT)
  1. CW jobs (maintained by Computer Weekly)  - www.cwjobs.co.uk
  2. Jobsite - www.jobsite.co.uk
  3. Monster jobs - www.monster.co.uk
  4. Staffs uni Jobzone - staffs.prospects.ac.uk/index.html
  5. Milkround - www.milkround.com
  6. Brampton Stafford - www.brampton-recruitment-4-graduate-jobs.co.uk/
  7. Graduate Advantage - www.graduateadvantage.co.uk
  8. Grad Central - www.grad-central.co.uk
  9. Total jobs - www.totaljobs.com
  10. Gum tree - www.gumtree.com
Don't forget to upload your best CV on above job boards and make them visible to recruiters. Few boards might not support this such as Staffs job zone but still you can create your profile with your skills and expected area and I found the team behind this is working hard to get visible results. Even you can email to employers directly since some of the above sites directly give employer contact details which is always better.
