1 Q' G$ R, e' D! T0 iI found a job in construction management in October 2008 in Edmonton, when construction business was in recession. The job position was an estimator at a Fortune-500 company. And it started with a very unique way - I took a few of my resumes and, with my my safety boots/hat on, went to some job sites on a saturday morning, after some cold calls to some potential employers. By chance, at one site trailer of this companry, I met a few managers from the head office while they were having a meeting because I just walked in. Two weeks after, I started working on an important role at the head office with a six digits compensation. Please note that, by experience I know executive managers sometimes do meetings on site on saturdays in construction business and their words count, and that once you show your values/expertise and readiness for the job, you will have a chance.
