Helping my bro find a job: sources?

[Zeze]

It's been awhile for me, so I may be out of the trend. What am I missing:

indeed.com
dice.com
monster
careerbuilder
craigslist
hotjobs
Personal networking
Career fairs
Head hunters

Am I missing anything big?

U.S. Army is always looking for fine men...

 

[blackdogdeek]

if he has specific companies in mind they should have job openings posted on their websites.

 

[Nik]

look up local temp agencies

 

[zoiks]

A brojob?

 

[Mide]

If he has a degree he can use the career services at the University that he graduated from as an alumni

Most states have a website that advertise state job openings.

Go to the companies' websites, look for jobs/openings, fill out applications...profit.

At least in my case. Employment websites such as Monster, et al did not work for me at all.

If he is a college student or grad, go to the Career Center and check out the job leads.

Strangely enough monster/CB got me all the interviews and jobs.. and 1 interview from personal networking.

I only get retarded bogus spam & recruiters from Craigslist, Monster, and any search sites dropped in this thread. They all are pure garbage. And the offers are shittier than the weight I lose on a daily basis.

$10 for a temp job, no steady hours, guarunteed to be treated like a nobody, somewhere an hour away from me? Learn to use google maps before calling me, you fuckwits.

Am glad I finally did land something in my profession that doesn't totally suck though.... But it was through my school, and nothing I came across in my own hunt could even hold a candle to this offer in comparison...

But yes. Do personal networking, that's the most safest bet. Encourage him to milk all his contacts for leads.

The IL site is worthless. Only lead it got me was something far below me, at less than minimum wage. A motherfucking joke.

What kind of qualifications does he have and what kind of work is he looking for?
