Alpha,
While I am waiting for my current company to run out of cash (90 more days or so) I am actively seeking employment using any method I can think of. My wife was laid off from her telecom firm approximately 5 months ago and is still seeking a new position (FYI - She was a VP. of Comm. and PR).
We are using the following sites with some success:
www.headhunter.net (drop some cash $30 U.S. to get your resume to perform better.)
www.flipdog.com (nice crawler of company sites)
www.washintonpost.com (though this is of limited value)
www.techies.com
...and many more.
With all of these I highly recommend that you change the title of your resume frequently (every couple of days) to get it to remain on the top of the search engines.
FYI I will see if I can get a list of all the engines we use. Also, we have some recruiters that we use though they have not found anything at the executive levels. The market in Wash. DC is cut-throat and we are competing with other very qualified people.
Good luck!
