I work full time as a software engineer but I would like to find another job. I'm a little worried about posting my resume directly to monster or dice just in case someone at my company finds out about it. Recruiters occasionally call me (maybe once a month or so) but I'd like some more frequent correspondence so I can speed this process up.

What are some good strategies to find a new job while working?
