Are You Looking for a New Job for the New Year?
Today there are hundreds of ways to find a new job, including referrals, newspapers, career services, networking, and of course, online. Online itself has divided into twenty directions, from the good-old fashioned job board websites (i.e. Monster.com and CareerBuilder), to newly developed and relatively untested social networking websites (i.e. LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter). And then there's the niche resources, those not available to the masses, those online job-seeking tools that only a select group of people can take advantage of - those websites are like MBAFocus.com.
