When German fundraiser Michael Urselmann started looking for a new job he wanted
potential employers to find him. He therefore put his [CV on the Web](http://www.uni-saarland.de/~m.urselmann).
“
I got six job offers in the fundraising field (three from NPOs, three from agencies)”,
says Herr Urselmann. “In the meantime I have decided to accept one of them”.

He commented that all the contacts he made via the Web underlined the convenience
of the easy and fast access to his personal data without obligation. From his point
of view, it was a cheap and successful medium – “I can only recommend it”.

He did point out, however, that the Web should be combined with other media, such
as inserts in fundraising magazines and leaflets. For example, it was his printed
handout at the [German Fundraising Congress](http://www.dsk.de/dfrk/index.htm) this
year that drew UK Fundraising’s attention to his online CV.
