Here are a couple of ways to find a job that will be great for you.

Job posting sites Site such as Careerbuilder.com, Monster.com and Simplyhired.com have been leaders in the online job search. These should be one of your first stops in looking for that perfect graphic design job. These sites are helpful when looking for a more advanced search. Distance from a city, the type of shift, the qualification requirements, etc. are all able to be adjusted so that your search is faster and easier.

Community bulletin boards Many employers including startup businesses tend to use community bulletin boards to promote their openings because the applicants are more likely to live in the area. If you’re looking to find local jobs or special contract work that might not be on the bigger job posting sites, this could be your answer. These sites often allow you to post that you’re looking for work along with your qualifications so that potential employers can find you.

Social Network Most major businesses have MySpace, Facebook and Twitter or LinkedIn accounts. They often post specials and updates about their organization. One way to get in touch with these businesses is to reach them on these sites as they check them regularly. Also, if they’re looking for some qualified candidates, these sites are a fast and easy way for them to let their online “friends” or “followers” know first.
