Job Search Resume

Internet is a powerful tool for researching career information, seeking out employment opportunities and promoting yourself. Database searches based on personal preference steamlines your research, and saves your time. When posting your resume on databases use sites that give you maximum control and privacy over who can access your resume. Some sites may enable you to block specific companies from viewing your resume. Always read and familiarize yourself with the sites privacy and security policies before posting your information. Finally, research many sites and choose a few for frequent use.
