Interesting.  I had never considered approaching a recruiter.  Unfortunately for me, Seattle has a thriving fringe scene, a thriving non-profit scene, and by comparison a teeny tiny percentage of for-profit companies.  So theater-related jobs--artistic or otherwise--that pay a living wage are few and far between.  I get lots of job offers with $50 stipends!  Haha.  (Not really funny, but I must laugh or cry.)

Anyway, I guess I was just curious if others had run into that particular issue.  The cover letter is an excellent place to highlight those skills, absolutely.  Maybe I need to weigh in a bit more heavily there.
