Small employers hiring around Columbus - any advice?

A friend who works at a local manufacturer says there are openings not advertised online. Any experience at all would help. They like a brief email with a résumé.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 10 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
