Speed Up Your Job Hunt With a Job Search Engine

Saturday October 24, 2009

LinkUpWhen you're looking for a job, you can save time by using a job search engine to speed up your job search. Instead of going to individual job boards to look for postings, you can use a job search engine to check multiple sources of jobs.

Use job search engine sites like LinkUp which searches directly on company web sites so all the postings you find are current, Indeed.com, and SimplyHired.com to search millions of jobs posted on company sites, job sites, and newspapers by keyword, location, and type of position.


The job search engines all have Advanced Search options. You can narrow your criteria even more and search for jobs by company, work requirements, education level, and other options. These sites also have additional resources to help you job search, including salary information, widgets, and plugins for your browser.

If you're spending time on Twitter, you can find jobs there, too. TwitterJobSearch.com is a job search engine for Twitter. It works like the other job search engines finding jobs posted across sites, but in this case, it finds jobs on Twitter.
