This question is for anyone who is actively applying to jobs. Which site do you use the most for applying to jobs, and is there a specific reason you choose to use that site?

We’d love to get your insights on improving your experience for applying to jobs, so thanks in advance for helping us with this research!

I am a paid subscriber to Flexjobs and use that and LinkedIn the most. I feel these sites offer well-vetted jobs and make it easy to thoroughly research the organization and the role itself. They both offer some cool additional perks, like learning platforms (Flexjobs) and opportunities to connect and network (LinkedIn)

I used LinkedIn and Indeed as usual, but discovered ZipRecruiter this time around, and it was great--it not only found me other relevant jobs based on my preferences and ones I'd applied to (with a 1-click option, which was fantastic and too easy!), but also sent me alerts both via email and the app. If not for its persistence, I would not have found the job I'm about to start in a few weeks :) I also tried Handshake and WayUp, both of which are more geared toward recent college graduates, of which I am not, so they might be helpful for younger jobseekers. Good luck!!!

I tend to use Indeed the most. I find they have a wide variety of work from home jobs. I also have had good success finding some writing jobs as well. Also, Dynamite jobs has been a pretty good site for me as well.

I use LinkedIn the most because it has the most relevant job postings, as well as access to networking connections who may be able to provide a reference, referral, or informational interview. I've had the most success with getting interviews through this or directly applying on company career websites. While I haven't found many relevant job postings on FGB, I'm hoping to expand my network and/or find other types of jobs.
