Work Dish

There are plenty of sites online that say they’ll help get you a job. Here at WorkDish.com, we make a more modest claim: simply that we’ll inform you about the best ways to get the job you deserve. That being said, job listing sites can be helpful if you put the work in and have reasonable expectations. Here are some of our favorites, in no particular order.

• CareerBuilder.com: Sometimes size does matter. Created in 1994, CareerBuilder now holds the title of largest job site in America. Every month, more than 23 million visitors check out the site, which has over 1,900 partners. The site offers a great way to search through both newspaper ads and employers’ web sites, but make sure to watch out for scams.
• BilingualCareer.com: Knowing another language can be a big advantage in the job market. At BilingualCareer, you can post your resume and other qualifications and find tips on interviewing and resume writing. Every job listing is sorted by keyword, industry, location, and language, giving you one advantage over other sites in finding the place where you belong.
• BestJobsUsa.com: “Best Jobs in the USA Today” makes a bold claim, but there’s no denying that this site include great company profiles which allow you to make educated decisions about whether you’ll fit in there. The site also features resources for interviews and resumes, as well as information if you’re interested in heading back to school.
• CollegeRecruiter.com: This resource is designed for college students and recent graduates. You’ll find both internships and entry-level positions in a variety of industries and careers. This is a great way to make sure that college education doesn’t go to waste. As is appropriate given the site’s young clientele, you can also follow CollegeRecruiter.com’s Twitter (entryleveljob) to get up-to-date information.
