It's Opening Day, and hope springs eternal

You can't beat it. Opening Day at Fenway Park, a gorgeous early spring day, the Sox are in first place, the Yankees in last, and hope is in the air once again.

That goes for you job seekers, too. Take a page from the Red Sox: new year, new look, new faces. Organizations are constantly looking to improve their performance, to stay competitive, to find the best talent they can. And that's good news for you.

Know yourself. Get your resume in order. Post it on BostonWorks.com. Research the employers you think will respond to what you have to offer, your talent, your experience. Keep at it, and the results will come.

Meanwhile, job search or not, here is unofficial dispensation to keep one eye on the game so you too can be inspired by new talent out to prove what it can do. Just like you.

PS A note to my friends in Toronto: sorry, I know you're supposed to be a threat this year, but you're going down today.
