Using Career Builder for Your Job Search:
Overview:
A newspaper "partner site", CareerBuilder operates as a division of a large publishing conglomerate. Not only do they have the jobs online as a job board, with many of the same features as HotJobs and Monster, they have the added bonus of connecting to many classified sections of newspapers.
Tips:
- CareerBuilder has interesting zoom features within job search categories. For example, within the results for Software Engineer, you can sort by category, by company, by city, by state or by pay range.
- Use these tips for naming your resume to ensure your resume is viewed as often as possible.
- Make sure to search different locations if you are not geographically constrained.
- Sign up to have new jobs emailed to you weekly.
Keep in mind that just because your resume and application are online, does not mean you should get sloppy. You still need a professional resume and cover letter to entice the employer to contact you.
