New job search website perfect for journalists, indeed

Being on the verge of graduation I’ve been on the job hunt the last few weeks. One problem that always crops up during an immense job hunt is having to case several different Web sites, job boards and association groups sniffing for jobs.

The problem with any job search, regardless of what your specialty is, is have to go to so many sites and often seeing duplicate jobs on many of them. Already I have about a dozen job sites bookmarked, job feeds in my RSS reader from journalism-related job boards and I have profiles at a half-dozen sites that email me when a job matching my description pops up. All of that has been made a little simpler thank to a new job search engine.

Enter Indeed.com. Indeed is a job search engine that culls job postings from nearly every popular board, in thousands of industries and puts them all in one place. I browsed it for about a half hour and it is amazing. Even though it is not journalism specific, it seems to work well for those types of jobs.

It let’s you enter a job title or key words and a location, if you wish. When the results pop up they can be further filtered by job title, salary, company, location or several other criteria. The returned results only take you to the specific board, so if they need you to create an account (HotJobs, Monster, JournalismJobs.com) and upload a resume then you still need to do that. Still, it’s an incredible time-saver and let’s you search hundreds of jobs in your industry in minutes.

Rating: Highly Recommended.

Good luck out there.
