> Survey: Online Networking
Sites Capture Interest of Hiring Managers Job hopefuls seeking an edge in an increasingly competitive
job market shouldn’t overlook online networking sites, a new survey
suggests. Nearly two-thirds (62 percent) of executives interviewed
believe professional networking websites -- like LinkedIn
-- will prove useful in the search for job candidates in the next three
years. And one in three (35 percent) respondents cited social
networking sites -- such as Facebook or MySpace -- as a recruiting resource they plan to tap.

College Job Market To Become More Competitive
The job market for this year's college graduates is inspiring
stiff competition, as employers slow their hiring pace amidst economic
uncertainty, reports AccountingWeb. Fifty-eight percent of employers plan
to hire recent college graduates in 2008, down from 79 percent in 2007.

Technology Tip of the Week
Provided
by the MSCPA Information Technology Committee
In
Excel, Missing Equal Sign Tool
You may
have noted that you used to have an equal sign next to the Formula bar that
you could click instead of having to enter the equal sign. Clicking the equal
sign would also add an equal sign in front of whatever was already in the
cell, without deleting the cell contents. When you upgraded to Excel 2002,
you will have noted that the equal sign disappeared. Is it possible to get
the equal sign back?
