So you want to find a new job but don't know where to begin? Maybe you are struggling to get the results that you wanted from traditional job boards and recruiters. What you need to do is focus your job search, make it so that you can find the jobs that aren't readily available.
Did you know that most companies these days have a recruitment page on their website? Entire sections devoted to showing what jobs they have available.
Of course the problem is that when you do a Google search for your skill set you get job boards and recruitment companies. Worthwhile to a degree but you could really do with seeing the companies directly, knowing what the job really is.
But by putting some thought into it you can uncover these gem job pages on company sites without going near a jobsite or recruiter.
Think for a moment, what companies would you like to work for? Look at their website, see if there is a job section and if they are looking for people with your skills.
But don't just leave it there think about what companies you used to work for. What companies your clients, customers and suppliers worked for. What companies your own colleagues or former colleagues used to work for.
These will all be companies in the same industry as you who hire people with your skill set. Some simple research, some checking out of their website etc can tell you if they are looking for people or not - getting you access to jobs that many jobsites or recruiters simply don't have on their books.
