Does anyone know of a good job search engine besides careerbuilder, monster, indeed, bestjobsusa, or linkup that doesn’t give you all the advertisements and phony jobs? I know there will still be some on there because there always is. I’m a recent college graduate and looking for a job in marketing and that’s what the phony ads are always aimed at! Thanks for any help on great sites!

Ok, I’m fully aware that we are in recession economy but heres my dilemma. For the past month I have applied to 74 jobs online and in person. No one has called me back. The only people who have called are the jerks that hunt the job sites (careerbuilder, monster, hotjobs, State job search engine) and want you to sell insurance (waste of time).

Now my resume was looked at by professionals and they have said it was incredible as is my cover letters. I have plenty of experience and a very professional appearance and attitude. What is the deal? I even call places back to follow up and they never call me back, ever.

I don’t get it. I live in a town of 75,000 and there are plenty of jobs.

I am in Michigan – one of the worst unemployment rates in the country – any tips to help me stand out and get to the interview? 15+ years in admin. experience, polished and professional. Unfortunately, the game seems to have changed from the last time I looked for a job 8 years ago. I tried striking out on my own when company I worked for closed, to no avail. Are the job search engines helpful? I registered with just about all of them (Monster, etc.) but definitely hard to follow up when the company is anon. Ugh!

I’m in college, I’m intelligent, 4.0 G.P.A… but that really means nothing when it comes to finding a job. I know, get an internship lined up, I’m working on that. But what else can increase my chances of getting a job after college? The web search engines for jobs such as Monster.com are so full of spam and unrealistic opportunities that it’s ridiculous. What steps can I take now to ensure that I can get a job upon graduation which is 2 years from now? I’m a Business/Marketing Major with an English Minor… was thinking about becoming a Copywriter at an Ad Agency, but those are so few and far between. I really am willing to work hard, I feel I’m different from my peers. What steps can I take to prove it to the employers? What’s a good way to find a job?

I’m a college graduate with a degree in marketing. My company is going under so I’m looking for work. I know about the big job search engines (careerbuilder, monster,etc.), but I was wondering if there was a website for government job postings. I’ve heard that government jobs are stable and have good benefits. Does anyone have any ideas?

My fiancee has 7 years experience in high school teaching in the Chicago suburbs. Unfortunately, she was let go just one year short of being tenured. Aside from careerbuilder, hotjobs, and monster, are there any other websites specific to jobs in education in the Chicagoland area (suburbs not city of Chicago)? Any placement companies that work with educators at finding jobs? It seems an uphill battle to go on each school districts website to see if they are hiring. Are there any "clearinghouses" where you can submit your credentials and generic application and that will be forwarded to multiple districts?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had no luck with newspapers, monster and other job search engines. A job as a marketing associate would be an ideal job for me. I live in N.W.In.

Are there any marketing jobs in san diego or in california in general? I am a recent graduate and barely can find any.

I use craigslist, careerbuilder/indeed.com, monster.com, yahoo hot jobs, directly go to corporate web sites, but no luck.

It seems like EVERY marketing job is 99% of the time for a "manager", "director", "senior", or some other high position, are there ANY entry-level marketing jobs? I know they are things like marketing analyst, marketing assistant, assistant brand manager, marketing associate/coordinator, etc., but they are barely any.

I am willing to go to other states but it seems like it’s the same thing over and over, garbage entry level jobs flooding job sites that are door-to-door labelled as "marketing", or manager jobs that I’m obviously not qualified for, what am I supposed to do? Is it the economy? This major? Or something else?

I haven’t found any schools in California that I can enroll in an MBA because they all require you work first, average age of entrance is normally 27-28 with 4-6 years of work experience. Unless I do an online degree which I wouldnt want to do.

*Why are there more managerial positions than entry level? What other functions in a business should I look after? I also try product development, PR, communications, etc.

*How can I work for online marketing firms that require things like Search engine marketing experience when I didnt learn that stuff in school? Should I get a certificate in it? Learn it somewhere?
