A Look at What Job Search Engines Are and Where They Are Headed in the Future Job search engines refer to employment websites that are created with the specific purpose of helping people find employment or promote their careers. A number of such websites have been designed with a view to allowing employers to post their job requirements for positions that they need to have filled up. In addition, these websites might also offer employer reviews as well as advice on finding the right jobs and pursuing different careers. A majority of job search engines will offer descriptions about jobs that need to be filled and they will also provide information regarding the employer. Anyone that is looking to find a job can use such sites where they need to fill out job applications or submit resumes via the Internet to the prospective employer. At present, it is believed that there are more than forty thousand such job search engines in existence. The habit of seeking online employment started way back in the early thirties when nonprofit organizations with the backing of the biggest forty corporations created a system to help job seekers store their resumes in online databases that could be tapped by recruiters. Later, software was developed that was sold to companies who could use this software to list their job openings via the Internet. Such software also enabled the user in managing incoming emails which would be sent to them by prospective employees. job search engines are websites that help in promoting job hunting and will range from being very small and niche oriented to those that are very large and all encompassing. The larger sites will provide job openings for various different job categories and users will be allowed to send their resumes to these sites and these resumes can also be sent to prospective employers who in turn will be allowed to post their job openings in order to attract the best employees. Typically, the phrase job search engine refers to any job board which has a special (search engine style) interface. It can also mean that the site indexes and even searches a variety of websites. Furthermore, some of these search engines are only involved in collecting results from a variety of independently run job boards. Others are mainly involved in indexing other and more traditional style job boards. Of late, a new type has emerged in which people are charged a membership fee in order to make use of the website. Such sites are referred to as Pay for Performance or PFP which are sites that screen various job listings and then hand selected job openings to members based on how well the job suits the members job profile. The bottom line is that such job boards are doing an excellent job of bridging the gap that exists between a person looking for a job and those that are offering jobs. This has led to a plethora of such sites mushrooming up in order to address specific requirements. In fact, some of these


websites may be niche oriented or even more general by nature.

They know that just about everyone has access to the Internet, whether it is through their home computer, or at their local unemployment office. People are provided the opportunity to obtain employment through using a free job search engine by typing in the type of job they are interested in along with the area they wish to work in. When using job search websites, people can also submit their resume for free. Once they've accomplished this, employers will contact them if they are interested in the skills they have to offer. This makes it much easier for employers, as many of them would rather search through the available resumes that have been posted on the sites than sort through hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of daily applications. A jobs website that charges a fee can be effective in helping people find employment, but may also be a waste of time and money, especially since most employers that post positions using paid sites also use the free sites.

Job search engine sites are organized and designed so even the most amateur Internet users can understand them. All you do is type in the name of the site you want to use. Next, you will see a few spaces for typing in the type of job or keyword you have in mind. There will also be a box that allows you to select a specific job category that will search every job available, such as positions in healthcare, general labor, consultant, customer service, etc. There is also a space provided that allows you to type in the specific city and state where you desire to work. Some people only use the tab that allows you to type in keywords, while others just choose to


select jobs by category. If you want to narrow your search, you can use all three tabs. For example, if you are looking for part-time nursing positions in Raleigh, NC. Simply type in Raleigh, NC for your location, the phrase "part-time nurse" into "keywords" box, and hit "enter". You will then be directed to a page that displays your search results. From there, you will select the ad you want to view, determine if you are eligible by the requirements listed, and then apply according to instruction. Using a free job search engine is not at all complicated. You'll find a job a lot quicker if you use more than one. Check these sites on a daily basis to see if there have been any new job postings. Most job search engine sites post new positions each day, so it's best to make sure that you don't miss out on obtaining your dream job.

How to Optimize Your CV for Job Search Engines Here are some professional insights into how to create a keyword rich CV's for improved rankings on Job Portals. If you are going to be registering your CV on Job Portals (or if you have already done so) as part of your job hunting strategy, then you need to understand the significance of creating a keyword rich Curriculum Vitae. Your CV is the only real bait that you have available on job boards in order to hook those recruiters who are searching for suitable candidates on job board search engines. With so many companies using the Internet to find talent, a search-friendly, keyword rich CV becomes your most vital job hunting tool, and while so many job seekers are competing for jobs in what is known as one of the toughest job markets in decades, you need to ensure that your CV stands out and ranks at the top of the recruiters search results. By optimizing your CV for higher search rankings, you are effectively 'out-ranking' your competitors. In the traditional online world, this process is known by internet professionals as 'Search Engine Optimization'. This is where millions of pages (owned by millions of companies) compete on Search Engines to rank on the first page of the search engine's results for a particular search query. Job Search engines work much like traditional search engines (such as Google, Bing or Yahoo) in that it uses algorithmic software to find, crawl and index the pages (CVs) on the internet (job board) in order to better understand what the general theme or area of specialization is for that that page (CV). By optimizing your CV for targeted keywords, your CV has a better chance of outranking your competitors for that targeted search term. How to optimize your CV for targeted keywords When compiling your CV, try to include more specific keywords instead of broader ones. For instance, if you are looking to be found for jobs that require a PHP Developer, be sure to use the word 'PHP Developer' or 'PHP Web Developer' throughout your CV where applicable rather than simply saying that you did web development and then listing PHP separately under a list of key skills. You would be far better off to list the full keyword phrase 'PHP Web Developer' wherever possible in addition to including the keywords in other areas such as a CV Title and under the list


of Technical Skills as well as in your cover note (both in the body and the subject line of the cover note). If the job portal asks you for a list of key skills - or for a CV title - be sure to include 'PHP Web Developer' there as well. The more frequently you can specify your target keywords, the more likely your CV is to rank higher in the search results. Most industries use very specific buzz-words, jargon and acronyms. If this is the case in your industry (e.g. SEO Analyst is used for 'Search Engine Optimization Analyst' or CA is used for 'Chartered Accountant) then be sure to use variations of both the full name as well as the acronym throughout your CV. When listing your educational qualifications, try to be as specific as possible with regards to your area of specialization in order to further support the rest of the body of your CV. Where you have completed short courses or workshops that relate to the target keyword (job title), then list these as well. By repeating the keyword (naturally and where relevant), you are reinforcing the fact that you are a specialist in your field. To further enhance your CV - and to make it easier for the users to quickly identify that you are in fact the expert that they are looking for - make the keyword bold wherever you have used it (including the acronyms, variations and synonyms thereof). Back up your credibility In the traditional Search Engine Optimization world, a page that receives links to it is considered credible (based on the quality of the linking website) and therefore counts as a 'vote of confidence' for that website. These links are considered important for search engines when determining which web pages are not only most relevant, but also most credible and authoritative. Since you are unable to get web links from related websites to your CV on a Job Board's CV database, the most effective way to position your CV as credible and authoritative is to include references from previous employers, as well as links to websites, profiles or articles where you have been mentioned or credited for professional opinions relating to your field of expertise. If you have a professional Blog, include the link to this Blog in your CV as well. If you are using LinkedIn, include a link to the recommendations page (if you have received endorsements on your profile) on LinkedIn from your CV where recruiters can view comments and recommendations by previous employers, colleagues or clients. By following these basic guidelines you will notice a significant increase in the number of views that your CV receives.
