Deciding a Long-Term Career
|
One of the most challenging parts of searching for jobs are the job search sites. Finding the right job site is so important because not all sites are created equally, and depending on what specific job you are trying to get. For example, if you are trying to get a fast food job over the summer, you definitely do not need to be making professional business connections on LinkedIn, and in that same vein, many companies only do internal hires for specific positions, so it is necessary that you are well informed on where to start. There are going to be cases where sometimes you might just want bulk, sometimes you want detailed profiles with reviews, salary information, and common interview questions, or maybe you need to improve your networking skills.
In my experience, the only jobs that I've pursued have been short-term, low-skill jobs such as working at a fast food restaurant or a movie theater. The best online job site in this situation is Indeed.com hand down. It has one of the simplest layouts and they make it quick and easy to apply from both phone and desktop. There are also features where you can specify a range in what pay you would accept as well as a distinction between part time and full time, as well as level of education that the qualifications for the job need. In addition to all this, according to Review.com, Indeed.com has the most listings of an other job board site making it a worthy stop on anyone search for both short and long term jobs. If a comprehensive guide that includes sample interview questions, salary information, and first-hand experiences from current and former employees is what you want than Glassdoor.com might just be the fit for you. Glassdoor is a particularly great tool because it uses the input of people who have gone through interviews or have worked at the company in question, and they are allowed to help people about to go through what they have already gone through. For example, before I had my interview at the AMC movie theaters, I went on that website to prepare myself with possible interview questions, and it was effective because those same questions from the website were also used during both the phone and in-person interview.
