The Riley Guide: Sites with Job Listings

Job Banks and Career Search Engines

August 2010

Bookmark and Share

This page features job banks covering multiple job fields and industries that are not operated by individual recruiters. It also lists Career Search Engines, services that aggregate job listings from various sites. These are at the bottom of the page.

You may also be interested in our listings for Recruiters & Staffing Firms.

A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N O | P Q | R | S | T | U - Z | Career Search Engines

These are services offering job listings in multiple fields, industries, and occupations. Most are based in the US but not necessarily limited to US job listings. Job Banks primarily serving non-US audiences are included in the International Resources, and any job bank I could target to a specific region or industry is listed under that category.

This page is arranged alphabetically by title of the service. We use a --New Grad/Entry-Level-- flag for those job banks which target new college graduates and entry-level job seekers, but almost every job bank includes listings for job seekers at this level.

You might also be interested in our list of the directories of newspapers & magazines (find the hundreds of online newspapers and their classified ads), the Recruiters & Staffing firms, and the Directories of Recruiters.

This Google Custom Search will search this site plus select others that we feel will be helpful to you in your search for job and career information.

Custom Search

A

AfterCollege.com --New Grad/Entry-Level--
...jobs and career information for college students and recent graduates as well as more experienced job seekers. You can select a job type or company type and start your search (it's not necessary to be more specific) or browse by company name. Registration and resume storage will let you apply to jobs faster, but they are not required. Nice feature -- find a job you like and you can review all jobs with this employer with a simple click of the button. This is a very nice site!
Alumwire
Alumwire "serves alumni, schools and corporations through virtual career fairs, resume databases, job postings, online chat, video posts, advertising, user generated content, and offline events." The free registration for job seekers is not limited to members of the university or corporate alumni groups currently represented in their Network list. Any visitor can view the jobs posted here by member employers (some incredibly good jobs!), but completing the free registering gets you inside the Alumwire network where recruiters can search for your resume, arrange online interviews, and much more. The bios for the executive team look good, some even have experience in recruiting, and they have some good advisors.
America’s Job Exchange
...the successor to America’s Job Bank (AJB) from NaviSite, the vendor who operated America’s Job Bank under contract to DOL. They are continuing to offer the same services enjoyed by users of AJB in the new AJE. Job Seekers are encouraged to register for a free account, but it is not necessary to search the job listings and apply for positions found here. And, as with the earlier AJB, AJE allows military personnel to search for civilian positions using their current Military Occupational Code. Links to additional career and job search information from America’s Career InfoNet are provided, keeping this site connected to the CareerOneStop suite. The site is also available in Spanish.
AOL Find a Job
The jobs are cobranded with Careerbuilder, but there are some nice features here and I was actually able to get to local job listings much more easily than a similar search on Careerbuilder.com.
AssociationJobBoards.com
...a site that links you to the many job boards operated by professional associations. Intended to help employers and recruiters find the best place to target necessary professionals, it is a great friend to jobseekers in the many professions represented by these boards. Select the category that matches your general field, then review the list of associations and select those that meet your professional needs.

The Black Collegian --New Grad/Entry-Level--
The online site of the magazine dedicated to college students and professionals of color. This has one of the fastest job search engines I have ever seen and some wonderful position announcements. Search by keywords and target a location or scan the list of employers. The more I look at this site, the more I am impressed by the information here. Great stuff for all levels and backgrounds.

CampusCareerCenter.com --New Grad/Entry-Level--
...internships, employment info and career info for college students. Pretty good from what I've seen. To apply for positions found here, you will need to register and post a resume.
CareerBuilder
...one of the biggest sites online. Great career content. What else can I say?
CareerCast *Sponsor site*
"CareerCast.com is the Internet's premier career site for finding targeted job opportunities by industry, function and location. The site's job database offers opportunities from all U.S. and Canadian newspaper, magazine, niche and TV station web sites powered by Adicio Inc., the Internet's leading developer of web-based classified advertising solutions. The job database also includes all postings to the Adicio National and Regional Networks, and provides the opportunity for job seekers to post their resumes confidentially to all Adicio client resume databases in North America." Only those links in the right and left margins of this site are tagged for sponsor support.
CareerMarketPlace.com
...operates numerous "niche" job sites covering Accounting & Finance, Business Support, Engineering, Healthcare, IT, Sales & Marketing, "Industry Sites" (Ag, Defense, others), and "Various" (broadcasting, education, telcomm) along with several regional sites across the US. This central source connects you to all those site, each of which is free to use and open for you to search the site. Iif you wish to apply to any listings found in their sites you will need to create an account and upload your resume.
ChiliJobs.com
...another large site with lots of jobs. You can preview the site and get basic information about the jobs listed here that might interest you, but full access to the job listing and employer information is only available to those who register and place their resume in the database.
CollegeCentral.com --New Grad/Entry-Level--
...a job site connecting the career centers of a couple hundred small and mid-size colleges as well as community college. Don't be fooled. Those colleges touch over 1 million job seekers, both recent graduates as well as alumni of participating institutions. Employers post their jobs on the site to a participating college or to all of them through the EmployerCentral section of the site. No resume service here, but job seekers may register profiles to receive email notices of new jobs. To register, search for your alma mater then select that profile to create your user profile. Your free register includes creation of your job profile for matching.
College Grad Job Hunter --New Grad/Entry-Level--
A premiere site for the new graduate, and not too bad for the more experienced job seeker too. Includes its own job databases for entry-level and experienced positions, employer database, and information on pursuing that new job. Jobs are listed for one month, and employer may elect to renew them. There is also a lot of good career and job search information here for you to review. You can search and preview jobs, but to see full info on any you will need to create an account (free).
CollegeRecruiter.com --New Grad/Entry-Level--
...a large job board targeted to the college graduate (entry-level and beyond). The site also offers numerous career articles covering several topics as well as an advice area for parents. There seems to be some "premiere" tag going with the job listings, but I can't find any information on how this works. While you can search the database and read the articles as a visitor, to apply for jobs found here you will need to register and place your resume in their database. Some decent jobs listed here, some not so decent, and some freelance / "work at home" stuff which should always be investigated very closely before signing on.
Craigslist
...a long-running directory of resources, services, and information links. Craigslist started by service the San Francisco Bay area, but is expanding to cover more cities. Part of Craigslist is a nice section for Jobs, but don't skip the Community area with its volunteer opportunities and support features (like childcare). This is one of those Internet sites that started out as a personal project to create a helpful source of info but has turned into one of the better resources for the Bay region. Let's hope he can translate that effort for other areas. Frequently cited as one of the better job sites for the SF Bay area! Click on the Craigslist logo to connect to your local board (U.S. states, cities, or international). Susan Joyce of Job-Hunt.org has a nice article on Using Craig's List to Find a Job which you might want to look at.

EmploymentGuide.com
...numerous job postings for locations across the US. The free website allows you to quickly search for part-time and full-time positions, and you can easily target a specific city or region for your search. One job from an employer will link to all others from the same employer, which is a very nice feature. Some listings ask you to submit a resume via e-mail, while others merely list a phone number for you to call. You will need to read the application instructions for each, but since this is a great source for local hires, we like it either way. This is the companion of the free Employment Guide magazines published in 75 cities across the US.

Geebo.com
...local advertisements, including employment listings, for select areas around the U.S. Under "Employment" I was able to pull up all jobs in the Washington DC area by selecting just that city and not specifying any job area or keywords. Conversely, I could pull up all jobs in one category by not specifying a city and merely selecting the appropriate category. The site also offers a one-button "Apply to this job" feature which makes it easy to forward your resume to the employer. You can also track down local rentals and more.
GeoWeb HireRocket
... jobs in information technology, science and engineering, and telecommunications in academic and private industry. Fee for posting your resume on this site, but don't bother unless you want to use their "apply online" feature or advertise your availability. Jobs are posted for 60 days, but there are no posting dates on the announcements. The date can be decoded from the assigned job code: GeoWeb - 6 digits month/day/year of posting - four-digit unique number -- two-letter state code. If there is not job code, then they are sourcing the announcement from another site. Very clunky.
GigaJob
...large job portal covering numerous countries including the US. I've linked to the very front page where you can make your country selection. Note that some countries are presented in German while others are in English. You can also switch between countries after selecting any one. You can search these sites by keywords and locations or browse by Profession, Job Category, and Location (specific cities and regions for each country are listed). All users can look at the announcements, but only registered users will be able to forward resumes/CVs in response to listing they see. Registration is free, you only need to do it once to cover the full portal, and it does not require you upload your resume/CV to the site. While they cover some of the usual countries, I'm particularly happy to see good representation in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, South Africa, and the Philippines.
GoJobs
...really focused on the recruiters and employers, but appearing to offer a great service for job seekers. They work to help employers post job announcements on several boards by submitting them to one location (here.) They also copy all of these submitted announcements to their own job board and let you look at them. Easy, quick, and free.

HireAbility.com
...a matching service for employers and talent. A few things that make this site different from so many others is the good info they provide (check out their FAQs for both employers and talent) and the free registration.
Yahoo! HotJobs
Search for jobs by keyword, job category, or location. Registered users of Yahoo! can also store searches and more than one resume on this site. Purchased by Monster in early 2010, expect it to be gone by late in the year.

IMDiversity.com
...sponsored by The Black Collegian, this is an excellent resource for all minority and diversity candidates. The many villages include resources and information specific for each group, and those without a separate village will find information in the global village. These folks are committed to serving all minority/diversity groups and are doing a great job.
The Internet Job Source
... links to government jobs in most states, dozens of agencies within the federal government, and many Fortune 500 companies. Search for a job by major industry or state, or click to check out the major newspapers, magazines, and other news and government resources available through this site.

Job.com
...yet another mega site. You can either select an industry (location and keyword optional) and review listings, or search by channel. The channels are the various industry, location, salary, or keyword lists. Job listings do not appear to sort by date posted, so watch that. You are not required to register a resume here in order to apply for jobs. Their privacy policy looks okay, but there is no contact information for the owners of this site, which always makes me uncomfortable. Use your best discretion. Job.com is operated by Virginia Web Properties in Fredericksburg, VA.
jobbank.com
...operated by JMJ Media, jobbank.com is an international, general job source allowing you to search by location or keyword. You can select the country to search from the pulldown menu on the front page (they only list those countries currently represented in the database, which I appreciate). You can register a resume on the site if you wish (it is free and will simplify the application process), but it is not necessary since most announcements have some sort of direct contact information included.
Jobcentral.com
...formerly called DirectEmployers, "JobCentral National Employment Network is an alliance between two nonprofit associations, DirectEmployers Association and National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), to provide job seekers in all industries and occupations, entry-level to chief executive officer, valuable, up-to-date information about employment and career opportunities nationwide." As before, you do not need to register to use the site, and when you find a listing that interests you you are taken to the employer's website to review the listing and apply. However, you can place a resume and cover letter here for free if you want.
JobConcierge
...founded by Jason Lee, this site takes your information, matches it to online job postings, and then (if you desire) they will submit your application. As Mr. Lee put it to me in his email, "The concept behind JobConcierge is that there are just a ton of job boards out there, so we assign each person an HR manager who helps jobseekers search and apply to jobs online. Although targeted towards executives, the site is open to anyone." Yes, live people searching job boards on your behalf, matching your qualifications and preferences to jobs posted on the boards. And they do not limit themselves to the big boards -- they search over 300 sites with job listings. You can register for a free 3-day trial to see what they may have to offer you, but if you like what you see you will need to set up an account using your MasterCard, Visa, or American Express. At the time of review this service cost $34.95/month just to search for jobs, but you could also contract them to search and apply on your behalf for $29.95/week. No, it is not inexpensive. Use the free trial to be sure this is something that interests you. Also, they have a TON of free resources you can use without registering (scroll down the front page to find them), including lists of Job Fairs and Networking Events, Best Industry Job Boards (they actually surveyed executives for this list) and Best Recruiters and Headhunters, and loads of job search advice. Phew! Reviews I can find online are generally good, and their own success stories say folks like it. My only quibble -- contact information. They are quick about responding, but I still like mailing addresses and phone numbers. Determine your own level of comfort.
Jobfox
...not a job board, but an automated "matching and introductions site for experienced professionals". This is the brainchild of Rob McGovern, the creator of CareerBuilder.com, so the folks behind the site are experienced innovators in the online recruiting market. To utilize the site, you must start by creating a profile (either upload your resume or fill out the manual profile). Once this is done, and it can take a while, you complete your profile and then essentially wait to be matched to possible jobs and introduced to potential employers who want to meet you. They have identified several key markets across the US (NYC, DC, Atlanta, Boston, etc.) and if you select one you can view several sample jobs in that particular region before you fill out your profile. Please note: I saw one review of this site in which a person actually filled out a profile, spending just over 1 hour to do so. Jobfox does say that your time spent will be worth the effort, but you are warned.
Jobing.com
..."a locally-focused provider of employment media, founded by an HR professional for HR professionals." Jobing's many local sites offer job listings, resources, and much more for the market each serves. From this front page you can plug in a Zip Code or City/State to be connected to the Jobing closest to you, or you can connect to those local markets through this convenient link. Registration is not necessary unless you want to set up job search alerts or store and resume and cover letters. A free growing resource which looks quite good.
JobIRN: Insider Referral Network
...newer site with an interesting concept -- add a "real time chat" component to the job and resume posting. When you create your JobIRN profile, you are encouraged (but not required) to include an Instant Message (IM) service (MSN, Yahoo, and Gtalk are options) so a recruiter who receives your resume in response to a posting or a recruiter who just happens to find your resume can contact you immediately and initiate an interview or request a time for a phone call. They have lots of jobs including direct-posts as well as things pulled in via spiders, you can search by zip code, location, or job family, and it is all free. Visitors are welcome to review the jobs before deciding to join, but you cannot apply for jobs posted here without registering. Again, the IM is not required but is encouraged.
Jobs.com
...part of the Monster.com family, and everything here points you back to a listing on Monster, but I was finding jobs here much more easily than I was finding them on Monster. For example, in Jobs.com I entered the term "librarian" with no specific location selected and found 78 listings. In Monster.com, I entered the same term "librarian", did not specify a location and did not tell it to limit the search to Job Titles Only. I found 71 listings. Hmmm. I also notice that if you search in MD just outside of Washington DC but tell Monster to go 40 miles it still doesn't get you into the District or Virginia, but if you search DC and want to go 40 miles you can go to MD and VA. *sigh.* I suggest you go to Jobs.com and either search the entire database or choose a specific region or state (I'd avoid cities for now) for an easier "in" to Monster.com
Job Search Shortcut
..."direct links to company career pages." No, they do not list jobs. They list the employers, browseable by major metro region (Atlanta, Washington DC, etc.) or "nationwide". Once you select a target area (they are expanding the metro list), you can opt to choose a specific location or scan the companies alphabetically. Find someone you want to check? Click on the link to be taken to that employer's company career page. This site is operated by Karls Communication, "a marketing communications firm focused on Web development and marketing collateral for small businesses." As of August 2010, they cover 41 metro areas and over 20,000 organizations, and they will soon have listings for all 50 states.
JobSearchUSA.org
...a friendly job site with a good number of job listings for this country. I like seeing the list of locations and list of job types, each with number of postings in each right on the front page. I also like the Quick Job Search on the front page. Another neat feature -- find one job you like with an organization, and you can pull up all jobs posted by that organization plus info on the employer with a single click. Many things that bothered me previously have been corrected but I still do not know anything about who runs this site (even their WHOIS info is confidential). However, I have not heard any complaints, their privacy policy looks good, and I like this little note on their Employers page: "All Jobs at home or any home related jobs are no longer allowed on this website so those posted will be deleted." Gotta like someone who does that. You do not need to register with this site to utilize it in your search, but registering (free) will allow you to create custom searches and alerts.
JobServe
...a large international source for job leads. You can click their little world map to select a region of the globe to target, then select an industry to get started. JobServe is part of the Aspire Media Group.
JobTarget Job Board Network
JobTarget is a provider of third-party career services software for associations in the US, powering more than 600 custom-designed job boards for professional associations and others. From this central site, you can search all of them at one time, searching the listings by location (includes Canada), keywork, and job type. You do not need to register your resume here unless you want to save searches, create alerts, store a resume online, and establish a message are where potential employers can contact you.
Jobvertise
...it is a large site and it has many many job listings. I would suggest you start with the "Power Search", entering a keyword and selecting a target state just to see if you get anything. Only after you try that should you consider searching solely by keyword. For all jobs posted here you have the option of registering your resume in their database or just applying without registering. The basic services are free to both job seekers and employers; they make their money from the Google ads and by selling premium services to you and the employers. Not too bad. Jobvertise is based in Lincolnshire, IL.

LatPro
... dedicated to Hispanic and bilingual (Spanish/English and Portuguese/English) professionals since 1997, LatPro.com offers a searchable resume database and job postings including email alerts. Content includes original articles, and resume translation & editing among other career resources. Several Fortune 100 companies use this site along with thousands of others.
LinkedIn
...find jobs, people, and business opportunities through your network of "trusted contacts." Anyone can search the jobs board, but to apply for a job listed here you must join the network. One advantage of the job board here -- you can find who posted it, connect with him/her or someone else who works (worked) here, and hopefully have a better chance at winning a job offer.
LocalJobBoard.com
...a job board focused on local listings, and by local I mean specific cities / regions within each state plus the District of Columbia. Select your targeted state, then browse by job category or location. I like the fact they tell you how many listings are under each category. They also add local economic news and occupational information for each state and each city (if available). LocalJobBoard is operated by Recruiter Media, Ltd.
LocalCareers.com
...operates job boards in all states plus the District of Columbia, but I like their central site better. Yes, you can access everything from the local board here, and it is much more forgiving in the search fields.

Monster.com *Online Veteran*
... search by company name, location, discipline, industry, job title, or combinations of these. They also have a tremendous database of information for the job seeker and the employer. Having now visited their member site Jobs.com I might suggest you start searching there as it is a simpler interface.
Monster College (was MonsterTrak) --New Grad/Entry-Level--
And before it was MonsterTrak, it was JobTrak. Monster is integrating this source for internships and entry-level opportunities into its main services, so you no longer need the information from your alma mater to access it. You will need to create a Monster account to post your resume and save searches.

NACElink
...a national job posting and resume service sponsored by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) and DirectEmployers. NACElink allows employers to post job opportunities to one or more targeted college career sites. Students seeking internship and other employment opportunities should check with their career center about availability and access.
NationJob
...impressive collection of job openings, company info, and a variety of ways to find what you are looking for. Divides into many sources of occupational and/or industry related resources.
New York Times Job Market
Free access to the job listings and career articles posted in the New York Times (co-branded by Monster), and the listings cover openings all across the US. Select "Advanced Search" to scan the full list of job categories or just execute a keyword search right on the front page. You can post your resume here or create an "application" for free, but it is not required. Creating a free account does give you access to some helpful site customization and application tools, but you can create that account without posting your resume.

ResearchNetwork.com
...a career and networking site for research professionals and the organizations that seek to employ them. It is not limited to job requiring a Ph.D., but there are so many tremendous listings here for those with advanced degrees that I think this is the right place for it. You can search and view listings in the extensive job database without registering, but you will need to register in order to apply for almost all positions posted here. You can make your resume/vita private so it is not searchable by employers / recruiters on the site. 95% of what I saw during my review was quite good, but I did see some questionable postings. Use your good judgement and keen intelligence. (I did contact them and they said they would check the listings and delete if inappropriate.)

Union Jobs Clearinghouse
...staffing and trade/apprenticeship positions across the US. This site was set up to centralize these position announcements. You can review the staffing listings geographically or alphabetically by posting organization. We are happy to say we are seeing numerous staffing positions as well as trades and apprenticeship listings.
Voolkan
...started by serial entrepreneur Alex Buran, Voolkan is a free online job search site with direct postings as well as material pulled in from other sources (SimplyHired). You can search and apply for jobs without registering, but if you want to set up a free account you can store a resume here, keep track of jobs for which you've applied, and speed up the application process. However, users of Android and iPhone smartphones will want to consider the job search apps developed by these guys for those of you who live on your phone. Search and apply for jobs listed on both Voolkan and Craigslist on the go!
Wall Street Journal Online: Careers
...completely revamped at the end of January 2008, the new Careers area of the Wall Street Journal Online is nothing like the previous online publication. Yes, you will still see the great free job database. You also have more dynamic content with more up-to-the-minute content. Content from the past 90 days is freely available online.
WiserWorker.com
...while some places (and even its own page title) proclaim this a site with jobs for older workers, it's really a site for baby-boomers, not all of whom are over the age of 50. There are a number of jobs here along with listings of job fairs held around the country, but I'm a little torn on this site overall. You must register and create a free account to apply for any jobs posted here.
Work Ministry
...initiated in 2004 as a program to develop Job Support groups in Faith-Based Organizations in the Chicago area, Work Ministry offers job seekers a nation-wide database of jobs along with resources to support their search while supporting the job support groups. They are also building lists of faith-based network groups by state (currently Texas, Illinois, and Arizona). Nice site, and definitely working to improve the world.

Career Search Engines

AllJobSearch.com
..in general I don't like metasearchtools because they don't work so well, but I must admit that AllJobSearch seems like a fairly functional tool. I wasn't necessarily getting good results with newspaper or newsgroup searches, but the results from other websites were decent matches. Just remember that what you see here is only a small portion of what is out there. Don't start relying on it to do everything for you. Keywords are a must, and I suggest you just stick with the Alljobsearch search option unless your results are just so large you actually need to drop out the newspapers and newsgroups (or websites).
CareerJet
...an employment search engine. You can search by keywords and location or browse the jobs by industry or location. They also offer subsets of the mega database by country (oooh, Malta!). I like this one.
Employment911
...online resource from the folks who gave us the WantedJobs software meta-search. This is a meta-search site that will review its own listings plus those at several other sites and give you the results that match your criteria.
Indeed.com *Sponsor Site*
...a search engine for job sites, including employers. This was developed by the folks who created Jobsinthemoney, so they have a background in online job search and a knowledge of what works online. The search results tell you right in the summary list where the job was found (CareerBuilder, etc.) and how long ago they indexed it. It constantly allows you to better define your search, even creating subcategories from your original broad search (I tested the keyword "librarian" with no specific location.) This will help you decide which boards to visit, and it is very well done. When you select a job to view, you are taken back to the original site, and any applications you make will be through that site, not through Indeed.com. Susan Joyce of Job-Hunt.org has a nice article on Using Indeed.com to Find a Job which you might want to read to get a better handle on how this site can work for you. Only those links in the right and left margins of this site are tagged for sponsor support.
Jobbind.com
...an aggregator of jobs, but this service avoids sites like Monster, etc., and collects its listings from the hiring companies themselves. You can search by keyword and location, but you can also browse by location and employer. The site defaulted me into the US page, but you can elect to browse or search another country (there are 142 countries listed at the time of review). They re-run listings to show they are still good, so you'll see notes like"“added: 2 months ago”, “last checked: 19 hours ago”. Great! Jobbind is a product of Orfalis, a software development company based in Amman, Jordan.
JobHits New!
...US career search engine, partner to a similar UK service. Like other similar sites and services, it indexes a huge number of sites. Unsure of how to start? Try the "Browse Jobs" at the top of the page. This will give you access to lists of job categories, lists of states, and also company (target employers) or title lists (not recommended). I know there is no real contact information on the "Contact Us" page. It is listed on the UK partner site of the same name.
JobSearchPage
...a career meta-searcher with a slight difference. They only index jobs posted on partner job sites, not employer websites. Many of the sites they index are "niche" sites focused on a particular job family, industry, or location. While you can do the keyword and location search, try browsing the Category or Location lists just below. While there are some misses (under "Defense" I found a listing for a Paralegal with experience in medical malpractice defense), most are good. And you are taken to the original site for your application, so no registering here. My only beef -- no dates to tell us when the posting was sourced from the original site.
Jobster
...searches several sites to bring you a fresh collection of jobs daily. You can also register to create a profile, job alerts, and similar services. Everything is free for the job seeker. Rather anonymous site so consider your options and review the privacy policy carefully before registering.
JobVolume
...another vertical search engine for those many job sites out there. This one covers the US and Canada. With the number of listings here, I would skip the search boxes on the front page and go for the Location, Category, or Company search. I like seeing where these listings are from and when they were added to the database. For full info, you will be directed to the original site.
Juju Job Search Engine
...Juju is an indexer of job sites, allowing you to scan many sources from one site. This was originally titled Job-Search-Engine.com, which is a bit unwieldy, but they rebranded it at Juju. You can use your keyword/location search or browse by job categories, locations, and companies. If you see a job you like, you will be redirected to the original source of the listing for application instructions.
JustJobs.com *Sponsor Site* New!
...a collection of job search engines developed by LatPro, Inc. for the USA. You can search the full database from the front page, but you can also go ahead and target a specific city, county, state, or job category by making a selection from the extensive lists provided. As with other career search engines, you are referred to the original posting source to read the full job announcement and apply. Please note: Only those links in the left and right margins earn fees for this site.
LinkUp
... a meta-search aggregator with a slight difference -- it only indexes employer websites. What you see are postings collected from those sites, and when you want to submit an application you are submitting it directly to the employer. It can be troublesome (I tried "caterer" which it reworked to "catering" and produced a lot of mis-matches). If you get frustrated, try the "Browse Job" link at the bottom of the page so you can work through a specific list of industries and locations. They also offer a Canadian version. My only beef -- in the Browsing list of locations for Canada they list provinces for which there is nothing in the database. If it ain't there, why list it? Otherwise pretty good looking. Create a free account to activate features like Job Alerts, Saved Jobs, and much more. LinkUp is operated by Jobdig.
Renego
A search engine for classified ads. Yes, it covers the US, but it also covers the UK, India, Spain, Poland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, and Sweden. Select your target country, and please note that you must be able to read the local language.
SimplyHired.com
A meta-job-site-indexer. I am interested in this site for the simple reason that it currently appears to only index those sites who want to be indexed, which keeps them pretty close to the source. Plus, under Browse, I like seeing how may jobs are indexed in each state or territory of the US.
