Searching for a new job can be....well, something that brings us both a combination of anxiety and excitement.  On the one hand it involves alot of work, patience and yet it's a chance to advance your career and land a position that can significantly enhance the quality of life for you and your family.


Searching for a job on LocalJobs.com is a very custom experience as there are a variety of ways to fine tune the search so that the results are very relevant to what you want to find.


You can look for jobs by city, by distance from a city, by company, region, employment type, occupational fields and more.  You can also setup job alerts to make sure that you don't miss out on the newest opportunities.


To get the most out of your LocalJobs job search by following these key steps:


  1. Register for a free LocalJobs account and verify your email address (you cannot apply for a job until you've verified your address). You can jump into searching at this point, but we highly recommend that you go through the process of Creating a Candidate Profile on LocalJobs.  Instructions to do this here.



  2. Peruse job openings by location in the search bar



  3. Filter your results using the faceted search options on the left side of the search results page


  4. Create at least 1-2 job alerts once you've narrowed your results so that you won't miss any applicable opportunities. To do this, click the red 'Subscribe to Job Alerts' button located at the top or bottom of the results page.


  5. Discover and study the companies by clicking the DISCOVER COMPANIES link in the main menu navigation. This brings you to a directory where similar to a job search, you can search and filter companies by industry, occupational fields, company size and more.  You can also view their location on the SWITCH TO MAP view option.
