The task of doing an employment research can be a daunting experience for many reasons. Fortunately, doing an employment search online is now easy with the help of Craigslist and other websites. If you want to extend your search, then you should start with these sites. You can then consider the many kinds of networks that fit your skill sets, income needs, and other particulars.

You have to realize that this quest can get intense. You can be overwhelmed by the agencies, advice, and attitudes that you encounter on an employment search. Luckily, you can “narrow” your search and make your efforts pay off.

You should find job boards that have updated classified for employment in your area and in major companies you might be interested in working with. You should also consider your area of expertise and find companies who employ your type. You can also visit their help wanted/employment search/seeking XYZ pages.

For example, you should look for journalist, press, news, magazines, and periodical ads if you are a journalist. Websites such as NewsJobs.net offers postings for NewsJobs in the U.S., NewsJobs in Canada, and NewsJobs in the U.K.

Remember to be as be as thorough and thoughtful as you can, when you do an employment search on a major search engine. You have to pay full attention if you are typing in different and varied words and phrases when, you do an employment search online. For example, you should look for more than just carpenter jobs if you are a carpenter.

Try to type in all the variations you can think of for the word carpenter such as carpentry, builder, building, construction. Do the same with all the different words you can think of for jobs like careers, help wanted, needed, and places for. For instance, I found a great publication called Places for Writers which turned out to be places calling for submissions, not dens and coffee shops and what we would likely first think of when we read the word places.

You should also subscribe to newsletters in your field, if you are doing an employment search. Newsletters are one of the greatest cogs in the Internet machine. Webmasters use them to get visitors to their sites, and are valuable sources. They have advice columns, special interest sections, and calls for experts or job announcements that can help you with your task.
