Job Search Resources & Sites

by Laurie on August 3, 2009

Here are sites that you should use today because it’s Monday, you don’t have a job, and you need some fresh resources. These sites have been recommended by readers of Punk Rock HR, they are listed in no particular order, and no one is paying me for these recommendations.

Not yet, anyway.

Finally, visit http://search.twitter.com and enter jobs, career, hiring, or jobangels within the search box to find opportunities.

What other sites am I missing?

Its a UK site, but http://www.careerplayer.com is a nifty concept.

Feds are hiring. usajobs.gov – tough to follow directions sometimes – they don’t always make sense but benefits are terrific and so can be the pay.

And one more.

Higher education is STILL hiring – http://www.higheredjobs.com and academic360.com will have colleges and universities hiring.

@David T: I apologize, I was not trying to start a political debate. I was simply stating that my company is currently hiring, and it is a wonderful company to work for.

The list contains a agglomerate site (other sites jobs all splattered together, indeed), very specialized sites that require higher levels of experience than average and a few others with a majority of low end job titles that wouldn’t be good recruitment fodder. Corporate sites that are well done and promoted, still draw the most responses.

@Laurie : you could add JobiJoba’s job search engine in France:

http://www.jobijoba.com

and in the UK :

http://www.jobijoba.co.uk

[Disclosure : I'm working at JobiJoba, but I used to be a punk rocker ;-) ]

All the best
