What do you know? I wrote about strategy jobs yesterday and today IT Wire published a Business Analyst / Strategy Planner job posting:

This is great. This job posting tells me that (a) strategy jobs of the kind suited to my skill set are available and (b) since the posting was on IT Wire, the company is probably looking for someone like me as well.
Now if only I would graduate quickly so that I can actually start applying for these jobs!
