Anyone have any luck with these job search sites...if so which ones do you recommend.
monster.com does not seem to yield results in relation to the size of the site.

The key to using Monster.com, Hotjobs.com, careerbuilder.com, etc. is updating your resume. Every 10-14 days, go in and edit your resume, even if it is as little as adding a period. This will move your resume to the top of the list, and will show up as a new submission when recruiters do a search. I have had very little luck applying to jobs on these boards, but I have had several corporate recruiters locate my resume on these boards.

As a matter of fact, I have interview with Dell computer today as a result of them finding my resume on Monster.com.

Good luck in your job search!

Good responses so far on this thread thanks.
I was possibly wanting to relocate from Florida to So.California, I am currently a
systems analyst so something in the IT field again would be good.
I have heard mixed results from monster.

Getting a job in the boardsport industry would be cool but it seems pretty difficult
to get into a good job.

Fo SoCal you are most likely going to find a job in The City of Industry ro near there. About 20 miles east of Los Angeles and 20 Miles North of Huntington Beach. Try these sites for the local papers and stuff.

http://www.employmentwizard.com/perl/vaui/Search/top/searchentry?xid=Cu.12071.3e945705.818e7.0&pid=44 (select the CA newspapers on thsi one for search)

Hope this helps.

Jeff

Got my job on Monster (mechanical engineer). Took me about 6 months of searching and applying though. wakahuki is right, the more you update, the higher on the list you'll be. I searched everything though - hotjobs.com, careerbuilder.com, yahoo.com (job section), newspapers, local websites, etc. Anything in the technology field is tough to come by now-a-days. Good luck bro.
