Can anyone help me with my job hunt?
I've already posted this in the 'new member introductions', so sorry for the double posting if you've already seen it (and please delete it mr admin if you think it's too much!)

I moved to the Geneva area (just over the border in France) from the UK
in July and have been looking for work since I arrived. I've covered
most of the obvious bases (constant searches of all the websites, phone
calls and letters to companies etc.) and I was hoping that some
friendly glocals members might be able to give me some more leads to
follow - perhaps in the companies you work for, or anywhere in the
English speaking community here.

In my last position in London I
taught video editing and media skills (sound recording, filming etc.)
at the University of London as a media technician, and before that I
was a full time video editor. My degree is in Photography. The problem
I seem to have is that my profile is quite specific and although I know
I have the skills to do quite a few different things I don't have the
exact qualifications to back up my belief! I basically need someone to
give me a chance.

I'm happy to call, send my CV to, come and
visit anyone who might be able to help me in my job hunt .. so I do
hope to hear from some of you soon.
