On that front, if you are interested in some good reading, I recently added this site to my blogroll - http://weblogs.asp.net/jobsblog/. It has some nice useful info on what tech recruiters at Microsoft do and some of the tips (especially on resumes) are pretty handy. Good luck. Hey Marky,

The market is only getting better, and if you stick with it, something will come up. And no, they're not all sweatshops - I'm happy to be working some pretty normal hours these days, and don't see that changing in the near future. I have heard about other software companies that are striving to re-introduce the concept of "life outside of work" to their employees, oddly enough it seems to be a selling point for prospective workers :-) Hang in there Mark, like Karan says, you’re a smart guy and bring a lot to the table.
