Three Online Tools You Can Use to Help You Find a New Job

Updated: Jun 26, 2023

Most of our job searching today revolves around using the internet. Most people are not searching through a newspaper to find job openings. Still, with all of the tools and options available online for finding a job, you can end up spending a lot of time sorting through the different options. Here are some basic ways you can use the current resources available to ease your job search.

Email Alerts. Having your inbox fill with automatic emails is annoying unless you happen to be getting notice about your dream job opening up. Job websites like Indeed.com search through various job boards to give you a comprehensive notice of what is available. Some corporate websites allow you to receive email notices as well, so always look for this option when searching online for jobs. Most will ask you what you’re specifically interested in so they can match your requirements.

All social media. Most of us spend way too much time on social media, but this extra time comes in handy when looking for a job. Any social media site can be used to network and get the word out about what kind of job you want, but LinkedIn is the one most known for professional networking. You can use the site to present what you’re about and list all of your past experiences. Moreover, it’s great for meeting people who work for companies where you want to work and try to get a foot in the door.

Online Interviewing Apps. Let’s face it, the job interview is one of the most nerve wracking parts of finding a job for most people. One way to get over those nerves is practice, practice, practice. It’s best to do a mock interview if you can. MyInterviewSimulator.com is one option available online if you have difficulty finding another person to practice with you. This simulator includes questions that are given through video, so it’s the next best thing to having a live person ask questions.

Ultimately, there’s an almost endless amount of tools online to help you with your job search. From career assessment to resume review to salary calculators, finding the information is likely not the problem. Instead, sorting through all of your options may be the overwhelming part. Start with the three suggestions above which will help you be notified of jobs, network more efficiently and interview well.
