How to Find Job Openings Near Me

Searching for a job takes time, but when you finally land the job that’s right for you and your future, it makes it all worth it. Whether you’re just starting out in your career, or you’re a seasoned professional looking for a change, there are many resources available to help you find job openings.

Use Online Job Search Sites

If you have access to a computer, then you can take advantage of online job search tools. Most sites require you to create a profile and may or may not require a resume and cover letter. You can narrow your search by industry, salary range, location, and more. Some of the top job sites include:

  • Indeed
  • CareerBuilder
  • ZipRecruiter
  • LinkedIn
  • Idealist

Attend a Local Hiring Event

When you attend a local hiring event, you can speak face-to-face with people from companies that are hiring. You’ll be able to ask questions, present your qualifications, and learn about current job openings. It’s important to dress for the occasion and have your printed resume ready when you attend.
