These are multiple links to state government listings, freenets, and
local bulletin boards (BBS) which could provide information on jobs
in a specific area.
CityNet has listings of information and links to servers in over
113 countries. This is a great way to research locations you are considering
moving to or places where you have been offered employment. You can also
use these to help find information such as a state flower or the flag of a
country.
This site has postings in academia and related fields from the Chronicle of Higher
Education. This compilation of educational and administrative positions is not easily
available elsewhere. Search can be done by field or geographic region.
Icon-driven launchpads for exploring job postings in different fields. One big
downside, however: there is no way to select by geographic location.
This is a service brought to you by the U.S. Department of Labor. It has a lot more
job postings than all the other sites combined -- in the United States. And
government bureaucracy is at work here: users can only search on one category at a
time, based on government job-code number ... so it only works well if you know the
exact job code.
Updated daily, this site lets you search on multiple locations and multiple skills.
This side is adequate if you don't mind weeding through a lot of inappropriate hits.
Job Opportunities By Search. Very flexible front-end form allowing searches on a variety of criteria. Search results are presented in a single line index format with links to detailed job descriptions. Listings are sorted by date posted, making it easy to focus on the latest additions.
This site is for the serious and frequent job seeker. Users may enter and save a
job-search profile, including salary range, and then execute or modify the search
each time you visit. The registration is free and confidential.
This site's slogan boasts, "It's where the jobs are". However, you may just want
to visit this site again in a few months after they've collected more postings.
At this site, you can choose an option to have job listings that match your resume
automatically e-mailed to you as they become available.
You will find here a comprehensive listing of job offerings in the medical fields.
You can search by job category, title, and location.
As the name says, this site's database is huge and is growing rapidly. Over 1,200
listings are added every week. Lots of graphics here, so you may want to stick to
text only.
At this site you can search by state, city, or industry, but not a combination of
these.
This site is related to "Career
Mosaic J.O.B.S." and serves as the electronic Reader's Digest of the
job-search world. Indexed job postings from selected regional, national and
industry-specific newsgroups, which eliminates the need to access and subscribe to
each one individually. Slow and sometimes hard to read, it's worth the effort for
the vast content.
