Job search engine's for US jobs

[brocku00 1]

Hi everyone,

I was looking on the other thread's....outside our Canadian thread , and I was looking at American job search information. Well, I didn't find much of anything on there so I thought I would come back to the best thread in VJ HISTORY and ask the experts.....YOU!!! In Canada we have HRDC Job banks and Charity Village and so on of 'ligitamate' jobs but it seems that everywhere I look for jobs online for American jobs...they feel/look like scams and are not really 'professions'. Anyways, I hope someone knows what I mean and can help. If anyone knows of really good 'legit' US job search engine's, please let me know. Thanks everyone!!

There isn't any sort of unified source like there is in Canada (HRDC) but Krikit posted an excellent job search engine a little while ago that you can tailor to your own needs and location quite easily: http://www.simplyhired.com/

What state do you live in? Some states like Maine have their own version of the HRDC which is how I found my job. I agree most websites seem very phishy. You can always use Monster as well. What kind of job are you looking for?

Most states have a registration for work requirement for people collecting unemployment benefits. Google your state's unemployment insurance website, and check out their associated job board. They have professional staff that get job leads, help with posting resumes, looking for work and interviewing skills. I have many clients who have found work through them.

(ie: in Hawaii its hirenethawaii.com)

What kind of work are you looking for?

What kind of work are you looking for?

I'll be living in Delaware and I was (still am) a certified teacher in Ontario for 6 years and am now working on getting certified in Delaware. I have a degree in Education and a degree in Recreation and Leeisure Studies (also a diploma in Recreation and Leisure). Since leaving teaching in 2008, I became a customs/immigration officer. So I have a lot of experience in different backgrounds. I have experience with teaching, special events, sports, admin, policies/procedures, Federal/Provinicial Laws, applications, and many more things. So when I look for a job, I have to look under many categories because my experience and education doesn't just fit under one category.

Thanks for all your help...I'll be checking out your suggestions and I'll let you know how it is going.

www.indeed.com is a great one. They search Monster.com, careerbuilder.com as well as companies direct websites as well as other sites to list jobs. You can set it up that you get email alerts daily of new listings.

If there is a specific field you're interested in, you can also check out industry association websites. For example, I work in public relations so I looked on the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) and it was great. I also looked on MediaBistro, which wasn't as good, but still decent.
