Introduction
Welcome! For those who have been passing
around Internet Job Search, Vol. 1:
National & Specialty Web Sites — thanks! You're doing a great job of sharing. If you are new to this document, I’m glad you
found us. If you have been here before,
you might notice that there is a subtle name change. There are no longer two volumes, just the
newest version, Internet Job Search: A
List of National & Specialty Career Web Sites, also called IJS,
which is so much easier to write out.
This document was created to provide resources to anyone using the
Internet to find jobs, locate career information, explore schools or training,
or apply for jobs. No website is
endorsed or recommended. The author
takes no responsibility for the operation or content of the websites listed in
this document, nor are the websites presented here a complete list of all the
job search and career information available on the Internet.
With that said, let's go!
More than 75 websites have been added since the August
2001 version. Actually, I lost count …
so that’s just a guess, but sounds productive.
All I know is I still have over 200 more
in my Check It Out folder.
Since September 2002, each website has been personally checked — one by one by
one. Websites that are no longer valid
or useful have been removed. About 40%
had some type of change — either in the wording, updating the link, or deleting
a broken or inappropriate link.
You may use, reproduce and distribute copies of this document for non-profit
purposes only — just be sure the entire document is reproduced and the contents
aren't changed (HTML version doesn’t show the page headers or footers, but the
same applies to the online version, too).
All requests for copying and distribution, including electronic
distribution, should be directed to the author.
The primary mission of this document is to create a readable, usable, current
and informative list of Internet websites that would benefit anyone looking for
work or researching other career information.
The secondary goal is to share this document with anyone looking for
work and with the workforce professionals serving job seekers.
Need some training before you start?
If you are familiar with computers, handle the mouse
like a pro, and can move around the Internet with ease, this part probably
isn’t for you. Many of you, though, are
new to PCs, the Internet and using a mouse.
I have learned from experience that starting basic Internet instruction
by saying “double-click on the Internet Explorer browser icon” can be loaded
with unknowns. Double-click? Browser?
Icon? Double-click with what?
What may seem basic to some can be incredibly confusing and frustrating
to others. Fortunately there is
help! Many good people have given a lot
of their valuable time to create (and post on the Internet) basic, and
not-so-basic, tutorials for whatever your needs happen to be. If you need to practice using a mouse (that
cute thing with a tail sitting beside your computer) go to Mouserobics! and have some fun
while you learn
(http://www.ckls.org/~crippel/computerlab/tutorials/mouse/page1.html).
Provided by the University of Idaho Library, there is a great list of free Web Training
Resources
(http://www.lib.uidaho.edu/library/guides/webtrn.html) you will enjoy
using. There is enough variety in the
list to keep you busy for a while. Don’t be too worried if some of the links
don’t work or some take you to updated locations — that’s just your first
lesson about using the Internet. There are, for sure, many other resources out
there on the World Wide Web; we but only have to search for them. Oh, and don’t forget when you’re on the
Internet to explore and have fun!
How to move around the document
If you’re using any of the electronic versions (online, PDF, DOC), there are hyperlinks within each document that will quickly move you (and your blinking mouse cursor) from one location in the document to another.
§ From the Table of Contents, use the mouse to left-click on any topic or page number (each are shown in blue) to move your mouse cursor to that topic in the document.
§ To move back to the Table of Contents, click on TOP and your mouse cursor will move to that topic’s location in the Table of Contents.
§ In Word select View, Document Map and an outline of this document, complete with active links, will appear on the left side of the screen. Using the mouse, point to and left-click on any topic and your cursor will move to the beginning of that topic in the document. Use the + and – signs to expand and contract the listings under each topic in the Document Map. Select View, Document Map to return to your previous view of this document.
§ In the Acrobat Reader (PDF) version there is a frame on the left that works in the same way as Word’s Document Map. Choose, point, click, go.
What you are reading is one of three documents written
by the author:
§ Internet Job Search: A List of National & Specialty Career Web Sites (known as IJS),
§ A Quick Guide to Internet Job Search & Career Web Sites (Quick Guide), and
§ The Dos and Don'ts of Using the Internet in Your Job Search (Dos and Don’ts).
IJS was created to serve those who want to explore as many sites as
possible. You don’t want the author
deciding which sites are useful for you, which are best for you, or which to
include in your job search — although the author does include personal comments
about some of the listings. I have one —
and only one — listing labeled with 5 stars.
Find it, work your way through every entry in the Index, and you will be
doing one of the best things you can for your career.
IJS lists websites that are free to use and have up-to-date job search or
career information. You decide a site’s
usefulness for your own needs. A few
sites do require money — it will say “Costs $$$” — but there aren’t many. The majority of those sites also include
information you can explore at no cost.
There are Top 10 and Top 100 lists of popular career
sites that list tens of thousands of jobs in their databases (worldHOT.com
lists the top career sites, ranked by traffic).
The resources on these lists are useful sites and you will definitely
want to explore them. But there are many
databases with far fewer jobs posted — a few thousand, a few hundred, even just
a few dozen — that can help with your job search, too.
All it takes is one solid lead to find
the job you want.
The second document was created to provide a one-page handout for job seekers
who ask "Where do I start?" A Quick Guide to Internet Job Search &
Career Web Sites gets job seekers pointed in the right direction. Quick Guide lists a little bit of this, a
little bit of that. It is a small mix of
websites — just enough to start you on your way, but not so many you are
overwhelmed by all the possibilities.
Quick Guide was also created to be copied and distributed through career
resource rooms, libraries, job search groups and networking groups.
The Dos and Don'ts of Using the Internet
in Your Job Search is the third document.
Many job seekers are conducting today’s job searches using older,
pre-Internet information. With five
years of experience working with customers using the Internet in their job
searches, certain topics come up over and over again. Dos and Don’ts offers suggestions, ideas and
solutions to common problems that might arise when using the Internet and
e-mail in your job search.
All three documents have active links to resources and are available at www.cvworkforce.org/internet.htm.
We hear quite a
bit about job searching on the Internet these days. You might think it is the only place to
do a job search. Absolutely
not!
Using the Internet is a very passive job search. Once you have searched and e-mailed, once you
have posted your resume and set up e-mail notification accounts, there's not
much to do until a prospective employer or recruiter contacts you. Rarely do you know if anyone has seen your
resume, much less read it. There is
nothing you can follow up on, no one to contact. Keep in mind, though, that the Internet is one more tool to use in your job search, not the only one.
Next, I encourage you to take charge of your job search! It is your job search — not the fax machine's
or Postal Service's or the Internet's or your local newspaper's job
search. Follow up on all contacts you
make and everywhere you send your resume, if at all possible. I'm always surprised when a customer says,
"I can do that?" Well, yes,
you can — and you should. Just remember
that there is a fine line between taking care of yourself and being a pest!
Finally — network, network, network.
Talk to anyone and everyone possible.
Let them know you are looking for work and what you are looking
for. Networking — using personal
contacts — is still where the majority of the job offers originate. Ideally you want your first contact with a
prospective employer to be a personal one — usually by phone. If asked for a resume, you can then direct it
to a specific person who truly wants to read it. Be sure to let friends, relatives, former
coworkers and supervisors, neighbors, and people you meet at various groups
know that you are in the job market, what you are looking for, and how to
contact you. Hint: Create a business
card that lists your name, contact information and a powerful, concise, focused
statement about yourself and the type of work you are seeking. Hand the card out whenever it seems
right. It is just different enough to be
noticed.
Be sure the people who agreed to be your references
each have a copy of your resume. Touch
bases with your references every month or so; check to see if they are being
contacted by employers, and let them know how you are doing with your job
search. Let each of them know when you
start working again. Send a thank you
when you are done.
If you know someone (or two or three) in your industry that has
experience reviewing resumes or interviewing candidates for openings in your
line of work, ask if they will review your resume and offer suggestions.
Whatever your individual needs and however you use this document, the author
has this request: Enjoy,
have fun, explore, and share.
Thanks.

Yes, this is a website out of Great Britain (it has some international listings, too), but I just want all of you to see what a well crafted and useful site can be like. An incredibly varied amount of information is posted here.

How easy! This is an “Explore! Have Fun!” site, especially for those who live overseas. In the US the closest we have to this is Career One Stop (www.careeronestop.org) where you can explore jobs, find employers in that industry and search the Job Bank for any available jobs in that field.

Work At Home, Self-Employed, Telecommuting, Entrepreneurs, Contractors & Freelancers
Many people ask how they can find a job working from home. This is an area where the author had difficulty locating valid, useful websites (not that the author vouches for the validity or usefulness of any of the sites listed here).
So many of the sites located during searches (too many!) promised untold riches for little effort or by enrolling every friend, relative and stranger you can find. Those sites are not listed here. So many websites (too many!) require up-front money before you can check them out, and they, too, are not listed unless another source said the site was legitimate and useful.
I was frustrated with many of the work-at-home sites. Many required far too many clicks just to find out whether or not there was a “membership fee” or book or program to buy or some other type of fee. Many had so many “pop-up ads” — when you moved forward and back — that I was not a happy surfer. These sites went on my “I don’t trust ‘em” list. I also kept bumping into some of the same sites over and over again, but linked together under several different names. Again, if you have to hide, why, why, why should we trust you?
The work-at-home industry is loaded with scams and information of questionable value — so approach cautiously, with lots of skepticism, with your eyes wide open. Conduct your own thorough research, check out various resources that detail many of the work-at-home scams, talk with people actually doing what you want to do, and read up on the topic. It will be well worth your time — and save you money and frustration.
For anyone who wants to be self-employed or use his or her home to conduct business, here are a few links to get you started. Again, research any opportunities yourself before making a commitment.
