How to Find Jobs Hiring in Your City
- 1). Utilize your Internet to search for jobs. Visit sites such as Careerbuilder.com, Monster.com and HotJobs.com to look for jobs you may be interested in. In the search option field, enter your city and state and any keywords that you associate with the type of job you are looking for. Find out what kind of requirements are needed to complete an application, and visit the company's website to find out information about location, company history and benefits.
- 2). Check out your local newspaper and classified ads for job fairs in your area. Oftentimes companies and small businesses hold job fairs in the area to recruit new employees and untapped talent. These job fairs are sometimes held at conference suites in area hotels or convention centers. Prepare your resume and attend a job fair to have an inside track to available opportunities .
- 3). Don't be afraid to network. Mailed in resumes and online applications are effective, but if you want to leave a lasting impression and are in a hurry to find a job, you can network in person. Visit the human resource department of local companies you are interested in. Bring a prepared resume and cover letter, and see if making an appointment to discuss employment opportunities is possible.
