Seattle jobs can be found on many Web sites listed below, but we hate to see anyone spend ALL their search effort surfing the Internet. If you can find an ad, so can a zillion other people! So this is the most competitive possible strategy. Also, it can be really lonely and depressing to apply for many posted positions and have your applications go into the black hole of the Internet with absolutely no response back.
Here is our advice to search for advertised positions:
1. Set up email search alerts using keywords that capture your best career skills. By letting computers do the work for you, it reduces your work. Our favorite site for this is
Indeed.com.
2. Set up a profile on
LinkedIn.com
and let recruiters and hiring managers find you.
3. Limit your online searching to 7 hours per week. The rest of your search effort should be invested in activities involving HUMANS. This means participation in professional organizations and conferences, continuing education, and social events.
