What are some of the better/best websites to job search?

Have you looked at LinkedIn ? It’s a pretty serious place for networking.

pssst…your link is broken.

Why not apply through monster?

LinkedIn is good. join their industry associations. Look in trade publications; they often list jobs in the back. Washington Post has a good online employment.

@corey D Because as I found in my initial job search, often when you apply via monster, the employer just somehow doesn’t get your application. For a while I was applying only through monster, and one day I decided to apply to a job through the companies own website. Later in an initial interview or an e-mail or something I mentioned to the HR person that I had been trying to get a job with the company for months (multiple positions) and she told me often times they don’t get apps submitted via monster. I’ve also heard many employers don’t like to use monster because it costs money, whereas sites like careerbuilder are free.

Linkedin is great if you’ve already got an established professional network. Personally I used craigslist to find all of my jobs, living arrangements, and current internship. Check that out for sure.
