Find your Employment Office website and begin searching the jobs within your local area daily.\n\nFind your State's Job Bank and also search and apply for State job openings.\n\nFor Federal Job Openings http://www.usajobs.opm.gov/\n\nHotJobs listing http://hotjobs.yahoo.com/\n\nMonster.com http://www.monster.com/\n\nThose are all online ways of searching daily for a job.\n\nAlso, go in person to your local employment office and discuss your other options. \n\nIf you are in college, search for internship opportunities or work/study programs.\n\nCheck into Volunteer opportunities. Many companies may use volunteers to start out with and then hire the most qualified ones.\n\nTemp to Perm Agencies...look in the phone book and find one near you. They will test your skills and help place you in positions on a temp basis. Many companies use temp to perm agencies to evaluate employees prior to hiring on a permanent basis and some companies, this is the only way of being hired.\n\nMany companies have employment information on their website. As you are surfing the net, click on these links to see what they offer. Many times you can apply by submitting an online application.\n\nNetwork. Talk to people. Let everyone and anyone know that you are looking for work and if they see something to let you know. Sometimes you can be the first to hear about a position before it's advertised.\n\nContact the Human Resource and Personnel Offices of major business' in your area. Hospitals, Manufacturing plants, Resorts, and etc. All of the big ones have personnel departments.\n\nKeep your resume with you at all times. Have printed copies in your car. Have a folder with all your references and employment information handy so that when you do go about your normal day, if you enter a business where you might want to work, you can ask for an application. If they aren't hiring right now, someday they will be. Just ask them to keep it on file until an opening is available. Then if you hear about an opening later on, call them to touch base. This will put your application or resume on the top of the pile again.\n\nKey thing is to be consistent. Every day, set time aside to look for work. Either online or in person. Keep at it until you get some interviews. That is what I'm doing and although I don't have a job yet...I do have an interview on Wednesday.\n\nGood Luck!

Hi,  \n\n   The most important thing to remember about job searches is that you should use a combination of methods regardless of your location.\n\n    Networking - Register at your local Unemployment Office (you don't need to be on unemployment to register for their assistance). They often will have networking groups on a regular basis. They also are a good source for the jobs that never show up in the paper or online.\n\n    Check your local paper -- In many cases the paper's classified are now online.\n\n    Search Smart Online -- If you don't have a lot of time, spend most of your time at sites that aggregate the job feeds from several job search engines. Prominently these include indeed.com and thingamajob.com.\n\n    Organization -- I am the lead developer of a free online application that allows you to track your ads, jobs you apply for, send or print mail merged correspondence, and track your job search history. This site is jobsearchlog.com \n\nGood Luck,\n\nMichael

You can use online searches on various job search sites, like Hotjobs.com, Monster.com or Careerbuilder.com - just put in the city and state you want to work in to see available opportunities.\n\nAs well, the Department of Labor for the state should have job resource pages for job-hunters, so you can check there as well.  Again, you would be able to add your choice of city to get relevant results.\n\nAlso, most newspapers have an online presence now - you can find newspapers local to your desired city, and see if you can access the local want ads online.\n\ngood luck in your job hunt!

I job will not just come to you - you have to make an effort to look for one.\n\nPosting to job and career sites is a start.\nSo is asking others for tips on jobs that match your career interests: ask them who is hiring in particular fields. Ask for pointers, and references as applicable.\n\nThat will get you closer to landing a job.\nIn US, it is illegal for an employer to ask someone's age, so you don't need to volunteer that info. In other countries, ask around for what is customary and appropriate.

Two great online sites you can use are:\n\nhttp://www.monster.com/\n\nOr;\n\nhttp://www.hotjobs.yahoo.com\n\nOr;\n\nhttp://www.careerbuilder.com/Default.aspx\n\nCareerbuilder and Monster are the most popular online job search sites for both employees and employers.\n\nOther than those check the work needed section of the paper, or some of the green sheets that many stores have available. However I would consider Monster or Careerbuilder, they can probably help you in your search and even screen poor applications out.\n\nGood Luck in your search for a couple of good employees!

Contact the school you graduated from.  Almost every school has a Career Center/Career Resource Center, and they offer services to graduates, too.  You should be able to work with them to update your resume, look through job postings and get some pointers on the current job market.  \n\nGood luck, hope it helps!
