Employment Classifieds Where to Look

By Alex Wu

If you are looking for a job, the employment classified ads are where you are likely looking. This is where you will find the most updated job listings. Classified ads are usually posted under the headings of the type of job such as medical, industrial, manufacturing, and sales, just to name a few headings.

The Internet has become a major part of the job market. There are many places that you can post employment classifieds, or post your resume. This opens up a whole new avenue for employers and employees to come together.

The Internet is a place where both parties can place ads on employment classified websites. The one looking for a job can post a r?sum? online for prospective employers to look at, and you can also include a portfolio link if your work can be showcased online. As an employer you get a chance to go through a resume of a person who is qualified for your job, and look at a possible portfolio. These services are a good way to match up employers and employees.

You as an employee looking for a job, you can look at classified ads on places such as Monster.com. You will need a resume, as you have to meet the qualifications hat are listed for the specific job offers. Know what salary rate you are looking for, as some will list wages and benefits. Send in your resume to those jobs that you are interested in. Be clear on your qualifications for that job, and put something in the resume that will catch the eye. What sets you apart from the rest of the people applying for the job? State that in your resume.

As an employee if you will be moving to another state, you can search their employment classifieds online, and possibly have a job lined up for when you arrive. You can at least find out what the job offering are in that state and city. This is very helpful, because you used to have to send away for the classifieds and once you got them they were often outdated. Online employment classifieds are kept up to date, so you know you are applying for a current job opening and sending your resume for a purpose.

As an employer when you place your employment classified ad, be sure to list the qualifications, and it is also a good idea to put a salary range and benefits. This is often what employees are looking for when they come to look for work and send in their resume. The salary range can be based on experience and qualifications. This way you can weed out the people that would normally apply if they are not qualified or do not have the years of experience that you want.

The Internet just opens up a wider range of classifieds for both the employer and employee. Some websites will have a cost for employees and some do not, many have a small fee for employers, and some do not. This is a choice that you will have to make.

This is one of the best ways to match employers to qualified employees. These websites are matchmakers for the employment field, and they do a good job of it. It is a very effective way to find a qualified employee, or find a good job that meets your needs. - 16928
