Job search technology has changed significantly over the years. It has moved from job databases to job search engines that search the listings for you, to sites that match you with jobs like Realmatch, sites where you can network like LinkedIn and Facebook, and sites like RiseSmart that offer a concierge service (for a fee) that will screen jobs for you.
Job searching is getting more focused and targeted and that's a good thing for job seekers. Given the number of jobs posted online, even when there are less job postings than there used to be, new technology that helps you refine your searches and find jobs that are a strong match for your skills is a welcome addition to the mix.
It's important to stay on top of the trends in online job searching and adjust your job searching techniques accordingly. That's not easy to do, but it's definitely manageable. My weekly Job Search newsletter is a good way to stay informed about the resources that are available for job seekers.
