A sincere thanks to Jeanne, an Associate Talent Acquisition Specialist working in
Human Resources, who sent the following tips for jobseekers:
· Check out www.indeed.com Indeed is an internet crawler that picks up job posting from employer websites as well as Monster, CareerBuilder and HotJobs. It is a one stop place to look for jobs.
· Also consider creating a profile at www.linkedin.com LinkedIn is like Facebook for professionals. It is a place where you can add “connections” but, even better, if you have no connections, you can join groups and connect with others in the professional community you target. Most recruiters are also on LinkedIn and we post jobs (for free) in those groups. There is usually a jobs posting tab in each group. You can also join the Open Networkers group to find people who will accept you invitation to connect – so you can connect with people you don’t know but who might be able to support your search.
· QuietAgent at www.quietagent.com is a place to look for jobs anonymously plus it helps match your resume to jobs you might not have thought about. It is a different tool for your toolbox.
· Jobs2Web is used by many employers who are building their own bank of resumes for now and the future. You can go to www.jobs2web.com to see the employers, including many Fortune 500 Companies, that are building resume banks. You might want to be part of that bank.
