There are a number of tools a job seeker must use to be successful in landing the next great position. Using job boards seems to end up at the bottom of everyone’s list, and with good reason: the statistics say that somewhere between 7 and 12% of job seekers are hired through a blind submission. So, why should you use a job board, and which one(s) should you use?
A job board is very useful to see which companies are hiring. Combined with keeping up with the news and your networking, knowing where the jobs are is pretty darn important, yes? Most companies post on at least one of the boards and some don’t post on any. Besides, a 10% chance of landing a job through a blind submission is a lot better chance than winning the lottery.
This Saturday, July 18, we will be reviewing job boards and arriving at a “best” list for the folks who attend. There are a zillion of them – what are your favorites? We will also cover how to best fit the job board into your toolkit so that you stay sane in the process.
Join us this Saturday at 9 a.m. at East Valley Church, 2827 Flint Avenue, San Jose, CA . Send your questions to anne@jobinterconnect.com
