                           Internet Job Hunting Resources

                   The internet has opened up the job markets around the corner and
                   around the world. Simple access to a computer with internet links
                   allow the job seeker to look for jobs in specific fields, particular
                   global regions, part-time, full time, or short term. Application may
                   be made on-line and a résumé sent around the world. Job seekers
                   can also post that they are looking for a job and allow the employer
                   to find them.

                   Going on-line and locating a search engine, the job seeker can ask
                   for ‘jobs’ in general or be very specific, such as ‘fire jobs’,
                   ‘management jobs’, ‘education jobs’, and ‘engineering jobs’. One
                   can also link up with job search databases such as Jobs.com,
                   Monster.com, or Jobtrak.com to help in your job search.
