My TOP 10 Go to Job Boards for Job Seekers

My TOP 10 Go to Job Boards for Job Seekers

(Based on my personal experience and feedback from Job Seekers.)

LinkedIn (All)

Indeed (Part-Time, Medical, Hourly, Skilled Trades)

The Muse / FGB (Mid-Executive Level & International)

Idealist (Nonprofit)

RobertHalf (Contract/1099)

TheLadders (Executive)

ZipRecruiter (Tech)

Forbes Top 50 List (Start Ups)

Glassdoor (Job Searching, Employee Reviews, Salary Info)

USAJobs.Gov (Government)

Honorable Mention: Upwork - Rising Star, Building momentum (AI, Portfolio hosting, Community, Support, Job fraud detection, Dispute Management & Client Reviews)

UPDATE: Also wanted to circle back and add that both LinkedIn and Indeed are great for "Easy Appy" (Quick/Short) applications. Both have a filter for these applications that generally take you less than 5 minutes, and even less if you have a profile on the site with your resume already saved.

Would love to hear from you on where you've had success?
