Are you unemployed and looking for work? Clark recently saw some new suggestions in
The Boston Globe about job sites that can aid in your search.
Screen-scraper sites like
SimplyHired.com and
Indeed.com both aggregate content from all the traditional job sites like Monster and Yahoo! Jobs. They're one-stop shops that the traditional job sites hate, but you should love because they make job hunting a cinch.
In addition,
The Boston Globe recommends several specialty sites for specific fields.
BioSpace.com is geared toward the science and biotechnology fields;
Idealist.org focuses on the non-profit charity world; and for those who are 50 years or older there's a site called
WorkForce50.com.
While the computer is a great tool for job hunters, Clark thinks personal contact is especially important during a period of unemployment. Too often, we hide behind the computer and that's just not enough.
The consumer champ calls networking "a lost art" and encourages job seekers to attend networking groups at community centers or houses of worship. There you can meet others who are also looking for work and share leads, polish your resume and more.
