Mediabuddies and RealContacts Launch World's First 'Word of Mouth' Media Jobs Service - e-consultancy
"The first global media jobs service was launched today by Mediabuddies, the only worldwide reunion and networking club for media professionals, in cooperation with RealContacts, the social networking pioneer."

Beyond word of mouth - Angela McCarthy, The Herald
Montage Interactive chief executive Mike Perry, who is an enthusiastic user of RealContacts, says he prefers to find staff through his networks. "Networking is the most comfortable way to have confidence about employing someone. Like most employers, we have been caught out by someone who appears to be fantastic but didn't come through.

How many degrees of separation - Simon Morton, Digital Life
In this national radio broadcast, Simon interviews Grant Ryan and two RealContacts' users. Amanda Gregg talks about finding a job through RealContacts, and Dave Moskowitz describes how he's used it to help friends around the world and muses on where RealContacts fits into the evolution of communications and online interaction. You can hear the streaming audio show here (the RealContacts feature starts around 5 minutes into the show).

Six Degrees - Bas Brookhuizen, De Volkskrant
"...forget all the jobboards and get onto RealContacts. Word of mouth is much more effective than writing job application letters. The bigger your network, the more people and therefore the more chances of a job. And now there is a network that spans the globe. "

Expand the network to find a job - Richard Wood, The Herald
"In real life you will consider seriously a job that is mentioned by a friend because they know you…..It's not about online networking, it's about enhancing your real world networks through a tool that makes that information flow more easily….It's surprisingly simple to use."
