Finding a Job Using Indeed

With its powerful search engine algorithm, its simple "Google-Like" results window and the ability to do a much more comprehensive, site-agnostic job search, Indeed.com receives 4 1/2 stars. Its main drawback is that several of the job postings it locates are listed on "for-fee" sites.

Monster.com. HotJobs.com. CareerBuilder.com. The list of Internet based job search engines goes on and on. From those that allow for National and International searches to those focused to specific geographic areas, most have value and have helped millions find a job.

But one site in particular, Indeed.com, seems to have stepped up their game and may have gained a competitive edge over the other job search sites. In this review, we will discuss why giving Indeed.com a closer look may by a powerful step in your job searching efforts.

One Site to Rule Them All

Using the Internet to find information was supposed to be an easy and quick way to get what you were looking for. But with millions of sites, along with millions of advertisements, getting what you want is becoming more and more challenging. Such is the case with Internet Job Searches. Creating an account on one site limits you to viewing only those jobs that were posted to that particular site by an employer. And while many employers post on multiple sits, not all do. And the job of your dreams may be posted on a site you are not registered with or searching through.

Enter Indeed.com. The concept is actually quite simple. You search for jobs that fit your interest in the search bar, hit "Search," and the Indeed search engine goes to work searching all the Internet-based job search sites for you. Your results will be pulled from Monster, HotJobs, CareerBuilder and any other search site that has a job listed that fits your search criteria. One site that searches them all.

This, for many, makes searching for jobs much more convenient, easier and faster. With the ability to save search criteria, all it takes is a visit back to the Indeed.com site to see if any new jobs that meet your criteria have been posted. Indeed.com is, more than the other major job searching sites, like having your own job search agent working for you 24/7.
