Finding an Angel

Mark Stelzner is a management consultant in Washington, D.C. One day, he wondered out loud on his Twitter account whether his contacts on the social networking site would be interested in each committing to helping someone find a job. After he got some positive responses, he formed separate accounts for JobAngels on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook, and he has more than 5,000 followers. These are people who are offering to hep strangers find jobs by critiquing resumes, making referrals, providing contacts, and finding leads. It's nice to have a reminder that "corporate" and "cooperate" sound alike for a reason.
