Jobs and Careers
Boston Globe suggests these websites for job seekers:
- Job sites: Monster.com; Hot Jobs; Careerbuilder.com; These are free. The 1st two allow you to upload a Word resume. Careerbuilder's resume section is confusing. Hotjobs has too many ads when you search for work. Careerbuilder gives better results. Monster.com allows you to fine tune your search.
- Craigslist.org. Set the search for either Providence or Boston. Watch out for scams, however.
- job-hunt.org -- links to major employers
