Does CareerBuilder.com service your area? everynametaken Send a noteboard - 24/02/2012 03:07:29 AM
Yeah, I know, I usually post random funny stuff. But, I'm gonna be graduating college in May, and I've been doing (i.e., attempting) a job hunt. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips? I'm already using my college's career center, as well as several websites, including Monster and indeed.

Thanks for any help!


After I was laid of several years ago I used Monster and CareerBuilder and I have to say that I had much better search results with Career Builder and more contacts from contracting companies than with Monster. Just a thought.
