Perfecting the Elevator Speech: This is a very simple yet important aspect of the job search. Pretend, if you will, that you are at a hotel visiting a tourist destination. Someone gets on the elevator with you and they have a name tag on that is of interest. You look at them, say name name after shaking hands and point out that you're seeking a position and you felt that he might be approachable. You then point out what your field is and that you live in Orlando, Florida. You ask if you can trade business cards. He says "yes" and you're off and running. The speech took less than 30 seconds as he has reached his floor!
