A colleague and I were talking yesterday about how back in the "old days" of the Internet, the mission of new job sites was two-fold - of course to make money, but also to actually help job seekers.
The goal was to make job searching easier (the job search engines), to help people connect professional (LinkedIn) and to reinvent the wheel. A lot of that, along with ethics, have gone by the wayside in an attempt to make a quick buck off job seekers in a down job market.
However, after griping and complaining about bad job search advice and bad job sites the other day, I'm thrilled to switch to the positive and to be able to recommend some new job sites.
Here are some good new job sites that are worthing incorporating into your job search:
- Jobsphere (for students and recent grads)
- OneWire (finance jobs)
- AllianceQ (Fortune 500 companies recruiting site)
Plus, here are a few that are not brand new, but are definitely worth using:
- Jobnob (salary info and jobs)
- Jobshouts (jobs on Twitter)
- Twitter Job Search (jobs on Twitter)
I'm always interested in taking a look at new sites, so if you know of more good (that's the important sites) please let me know.
