NWR: Job Hunting

Aside from Monster, Hotjobs and Craigslist, where else should I be checking for job listings?

alot of career fields have their own website- marketingjobs.com, the DMA has a database and so does the AMA- you also should check with your school- a lot of times they have ads that are not publicly posted.

If there are any companies you ever thought it would be nice to work at, check them out. Competitors, etc - always great places to check!

I actually want to leave what I'm doing so no competitors for me!

Also reach out to any contacts you may have and just let them know you are looking for a new opportunity.

Before my current job my prior two jobs were from contacts within the industry I was working in.

Indeed.com. It pulls listings from all the sites on the net so you can view them in one place. Also idealist.org. It lists all not-for-profit jobs.

Just be careful with Monster and CareerBuilder -- a lot time it is just staffing agency that will contact you. Especially Monster -- I learned this the hard way.

You are better off sticking to a more generalized area.

MeetingJobs.com is a good one if you are looking to go into that field.

I've definitely noticed that. I'll check out meeting jobs!
