Unemployed Banter
 

I thought this might be a good place for those of us who are unemployed to post up links to job services, websites etc and post encouragement and helpful hints for our brothers/sisters who are in this boat.

I put it in the networking section so if you want to post up a little bit about what you are looking for, maybe it can be useful.

I'll post up some of the more common job search sites and a few I just started using. If you have had success with one or another, post that up.

Dice (www.dice.com) is an excellent job board for IT professionals.

I'll create a sticky thread for resource links only. I'll keep the first post updated with the links people submit.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

I was suddenly and unexpectedly laid off 2 years ago and i found indeed.com to be a very good resource as it scans most of the other sources. This is approaching a tough time of the year for job hunting so if you find yourself there don't get discouraged as things usually pick up in mid January after the Holiday Season.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Kevin - Can you provide a brief description of what this site is about?

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Sean - What is The Ladders?

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Sure.....indeed is basically a search engine of job postings. From my understanding, it searches many different resources and can search based on keywords and geographical area. The links provided will take you to where indeed found the job listing.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

From their website.

Essentially a 100k+ management/executive job site


TheLadders.com brings you real, open $100K+ jobs across every industry and sector. Our targeted sites list more than 36,000 new jobs each month, which makes us the most comprehensive listing of the best $100K+ jobs out there.

Thanks guys. I've updated the sticky thread.

Feel free to banter and freewheel it in this thread but please post useful links to the sticky thread so that the consolidated list can be maintained.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Update to comply with Peter's specs:

www.craigslist.org

Community based job postings. Contains lots of part-time listings and "gigs" as well as full time.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

Thanks, Andrew. :tu

Everyone, on a go forward basis, please post links in the sticky thread.

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

I've seen periodic references to LinkedIn. What is it?

Re: Unemployed Resources Banter
 

An online networking site. Think Facebook for professionals.
