"Adults of all ages are facing the challenge today of finding the right job for them," Hittle said. "This is true of first-time career seekers to adults seeking a new challenge from stressed-out jobs and to those facing downsizing.

`Today's job search requires new techniques, including using the Internet, networking with people in various careers, and preparing behavioral interviewing questions."
