It is important to find out from people inside the industry the latest trends and projected developments at both broad and job specific levels. Making contacts and preparing the types of questions you need to ask can help you find this information. Follow up any letters with a phone call, as this is one way to access good contacts.

C&E have Online Guides to further help you and the Internet may also provide you with some starting points.
