The Internet

The Internet has a number of resources to help entry-level and experienced job hunters locate job listings, post resumes on-line, obtain general job search and career development advice, and keep abreast of current issues or trends in their respective fields. It offers 24 hour access and includes information from a broad geographic area. Practically anything you can imagine (and some things that you can't) can be found on the Internet. It is a powerful job search tool that offers immense possibilities; however, it does have some limitations:

➢ Because of the Internet's world wide exposure, competition for posted job listings is fierce.
➢ Because it is unregulated, the reliability and truthfulness of information is subject to question.

Remember the internet is a passive job search strategy that should always be used in conjunction with other more traditional approaches like networking, using the telephone, etc.
