Your guest seems to think (or at least imply) that finding a job on iMatchSkills that matches your profile somehow magically puts you on the road to employment.  That is patently untrue.  I've found dozens of jobs for which I am very qualified, and distributed my resume far and wide.  But getting callbacks for jobs seems elusive.  Employers can be very selective.  The scant few times I've gotten interviews, I've felt like even the slightest wrong thing said or missing "required" skill on your resume sends you straight to the "no" pile.
