Online Job Boards

The internet is a rich resource for job seekers. There are many "job boards" available for various careers, industries, specialty areas, and geographic regions.

Can you find a job through online job boards?
Yes, BUT it is highly competitive and this should not be your primary means of job search. More effective strategies are: targeted company and industry research, networking in person and online, information conversations with professionals, and professional association memberships and participation.

Are you competing with hundreds of job seekers?
YES! As long as you don't use Job Boards as your only or primary means of job search, it is worthwhile to search onlne, but be strategic in your search. Use "niche job boards" as well as generic ones. The larger job boards have more job listings, but niche job boards may better match you with your ideal job.

Below is a list of some of the more popular job boards as well as job boards targeting the Central Texas and Texas areas.
