In addition to searching for jobs, you can post an advertisement that you're looking for work, along with any job skills you have, or the kind of work you're looking for. Remember, if you are within a year of your release date, the company hiring you can get a tax credit, which you can use to give you an advantage over someone else who doesn't have one.
