Career Placement continued Part 2 - Job search

Job Search

After you have completed your resume and a professional (someone like me or other person) has reviewed it, you are ready to begin your job search. Remember, you want the very best resume - you have a product, your self, to sell and your resume is your marketing tool.

Most people find their jobs through networking and I will talk about that in another section of this blog. However, I am going to list below some good websites for job search. In todays job market (March 2009) there are several industries that are hiring - healthcare, education, federal government which includes the US Census Bureau.

http://www.simplyhired.com/ ( this is a search engine for employment - it is a great site to do a one-stop job search. Employers cannot post jobs nor can job seekers post resumes. It will search every website for job opportunities based on your key words and location. It will also search by company. Follow the links to apply and then return to your search.
