Looking for new work - any suggestions?

I have got to get out of my current workplace, I'm so fed up there. Apart from reaching out to my network of contacts, what else can I do? Any suggestions? How did you land your position? I know this is not the best economy to be looking for work in so I need all the help I can get! TIA :)

    In what industry do you work?  I know job searching for me (education) is dramatically different than job searching for my husband (law).

    This.  Maybe contact headhunters and hit the job boards.

    ETA: I just read from the post below you are in the toy business, marketing and quality assurance? Do you want to remain in this field? If so, there are lots of similar jobs (in my area) on CL and monster/careerbuilder.  If not, I would figure out my interests and maybe even take a career test.  Then I can help you with some guidance. But it will probably be the same answer-contact recruiters and look on job boards.

    I would get on LinkedIn if you arent't already on it. Also check out indeed.com. I love this sight because it pulls jobs from other boards so you don't have to check multiple boards. Good luck!

    Thanks ladies. My background is inventory and supply chain. While I am currently in the toy industry, I have also been in shoes and skateboards. When you're in operations, it doesn't matter so much what the product is.

    So far I am using indeed.com and other job search sites. I have a lot of contacts on LinkedIn so just need to decide how to spread the word there?
