    Step 7: Job-Hunting on the Internet

    • Expectations. Job-hunting on the Internet is not some magic elixir that will guarantee that you find a job. For most job-seekers, you should spend no more than about 20% of your time and effort looking for a job online, though job-seekers in the technology/computer industry might be wise to spend up to 50% of your time looking for a job online.
    • Hint. We suggest you take a moment and visit our companion tutorial, Guide to Job-Hunting on the Internet.
    • Strategy.
      • General job sites: there are a number of job sites that cater to all job-seekers. These sites have job listings -- and most allow resume postings -- for just about all job levels and industries. Some of these include HotJobs.com, FlipDog.com, CareerShop.com, and others. View our current list of the Top 10 Job Web Sites.
      • College graduate job sites: there are a number of job sites whose main focus is specifically for college students, so the jobs tend to be more entry-level. Most of these sites have job listings and allow resume postings. We suggest you visit JobsDirect.com and CollegeRecruiter.com, and others. View our current listing of college graduate job resources.
      • Industry-specific job sites: just about every industry now has at least one job site, if not more. These sites have the advantage of job openings for your specific industry. Most of these sites have job listings and allow resume postings. We suggest you view our directory of industry-specific job sites.
      • Company sites: more and more, employers are using their company Websites to list job openings and recruit job-seekers. If you have a list of specific companies in mind, we suggest you go directly to their Websites.
