Local job board targets job hunters and daters in equal measure to provide much needed information.

Campbell, CA -- (SBWire) -- 02/21/2011 -- As Valentine’s Day approaches, the set of job hunters who also happen to be single begins to shift its attention from finding work to finding love. In order to help keep their audience on track, BAJobs.com has released a list of ten reasons why dating and job hunting are similar. Says Assistant Marketing Manager Mitch Kocen, “The skill sets you need to use to find a date and the skill sets you need to find a job are not that far apart. It’s just a matter of understanding how they’re similar to figure out how to crack both.” To that end, BAJobs.com has created a list of how finding a job and finding a date are similar:

1. You feel compelled to lie over e-mail.
2. The ones your mom finds for you are rarely the ones you want to spend the rest of your life with.
3. As soon as you finish college the pressure is on to find a good one and settle down.
4. If things works out, you change your Facebook status.
5. Onions are the enemy when meeting for the first time.
6. You will be Googled.
7. You might think you can get all the benefits without any of the responsibilities, but you’d be wrong.
8. Knowing a little bit about the other party ahead of time is being prepared. Knowing too much is creepy.
9. Be confident and engaging, but don’t exaggerate too much about prior experience.
10. Someone is much more likely to be receptive to meeting you if you’re introduced by a mutual friend. Networking is key to weed out the creeps.
