Three job search tools to keep up to date

If you keep these up to date, you are ready to go if you need to look for a job or you weren't looking but your dream job turns up.  Even if you aren't job hunting, a current resume and professional portfolio can help when you do your performance appraisal.

1. Resume
( you are going to tailor this for any job you apply for but I try to keep one master copy to work from)

2. Professional Portfolio: Keep copies of work samples ( online and hard copy)

3. References (when is the last time you contacted your references?)
