Using Employment Sites in Your Job Search

2007-06-28T04:03:00.000-07:00

Employment web sites have been the greatest advance in the field of recruiting since the creation of the resume. Since their first appearance on the World Wide Web, job boards and career portals have connected more organizations to more talent more efficiently than any other single medium in existence. Both employers and recruiters now consider these sites a critical component of their sourcing and recruiting strategy. Today, job boards and career portals serve virtually every profession, craft and trade, in every industry, in every country of the world.

Employment Site Services & Features

Private, automated notification by e-mail or RSS/XML of job openings that match your employment objective.

Information about effective job search techniques.

Resources for a successful job search, such as resume writing assistance, interviewing advice, salary and compensation information.
Links to additional job search and career management resources at other sites.
Skills for effective career self-management.
Resume databases to announce your availability to potential employers and recruiters

Selecting Employment Sites

With so many career related sites to choose from you really must find a way to narrow your focus. Most people check out the big Employment Super Sites, like Monster, Hot Jobs and CareerBuilder. But, they are not the only, or even always the best, place to look. Smaller, more focused sites can often be much more useful to you.

Specialized Industry or Occupation Employment Sites

These specialized sites focus on a specific niche, usually an industry, profession, or a combination of both. These sites are highly targeted toward the professionals of the specific industry it serves. The specialization means the site is smaller, fewer jobs and fewer resumes and less competition for the posted jobs. Some employers will only use these sites because they are usually less expensive than the Super Sites and their job postings don't get lost in the postings from other companies.

Regional and Local Employment Sites

There are also local and regional job sites that can be effective in finding a job in a specific location. Again, many of these sites include listings from local employers who may not be inclined to post on the major jobs sites.
These sites focus on a specific geographic area, usually a city or state. The upside on these is that the jobs should be located where you want to work. The downside is that there may not be thousands of jobs listed. Local and regional employers don't always post on the major jobs sites like Monster or Hot Jobs. Instead, they will advertise on their local employment site to avoid being overwhelmed with applicants and, often, because they are not interested in paying relocation costs.
Visiting a Super Site such as Monster and using the location filter, for example, Dallas, Texas will not result in the same results you get from using TexasJobs and using Dallas as your search criteria. Even if you are conducting a national job search it is worth visiting the regional and local sites.

Specialized Employment Services

Their are many specialized employment services those provide their services to large corporations, executives. One such service provider is Princeton Executive Group. They provide special employment coaching and training.

Tips for Your Job Search

Most online job seekers concentrate all their efforts on the large, well known commercial job search sites. The smaller specialized or regional sites are often underutilized because they are difficult to find using traditional search engines and they don't spend millions on advertising. Since these smaller sites are underutilized, the sophisticated manager, professional or executive job seeker will take full advantage of these specialized resources.

Employment Job Searching Using the Internet

2007-06-28T03:41:00.000-07:00

Finding employment opportunities has never been easier than now- with the consistent and constant growth of the Internet. Using the Internet, job seekers can simply find vacancies of their choice in the location of their choice. With a simple click of the mouse, a huge list of job opportunities is literally at their fingertips.
Once upon a time, the only way job seekers can find jobs is by browsing the classifieds section of the paper. This method of job seeking is not only tiring (what with the small prints) but it is limited within the area where the job seeker is residing. Job seekers who wish to find employment outside of their state or county will have to get their hands on classifieds of the state itself. Although this is not an entirely tough thing to do, but at the end of the day, you would have to sort through a huge stack of newspapers just to find the job that you want!
One of the most amazing things about finding employment on the Internet is that job seekers can sign up a membership account. Membership accounts are usually free, but with the free job seeker account, the options are limited. With a paid job seeker accounts, you?ll have more freedom and can place more information and details into your portfolio. However, millions upon millions of people have successfully found their dream jobs by using the free membership accounts offered by these employment agencies.
With an account with the employment website, the job seeker can place their personal information, contact details, education history and history of employment directly into the website's database. Some employment websites even allow job seekers to place their recent photos into the database, which is useful to the employer, for verification purposes. With the entire resume placed in the database of the employment website, the job seeker searches through the database of vacancies in the website. A simple search can be done through the employment website's search engine. You can fine tune the search by category, location, country, area of expertise, job type, and more. Interested job applicants with their resumes in the database will only have to log into their employment account, click apply, and the resume will be automatically sent to the potential employer.
Compare this with the way things were done about a decade or more ago; in order to apply for a job, you have to type a whole cover letter individually, print out your resume and send it by post. Although this task is not very hard to do, but it limits the choices of the job seeker down; and the process is slow, if the application actually reaches the employer or not. The postal industry did not have such a smashing record at that time.
As you can see, finding employment on the Internet is not only free, it's extremely convenient. On top of that, you can search, browse and apply any time you want, irregardless of whether it's office hours or not! 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — the employment website is available to every single one of their job seeker members.
