Simply Hired Named to Top 100 Websites

Top100Icon4 WEDDLES, the largest publisher of guides to employment websites on the Internet, recently released it’s 2009/2010 guide, in which Simply Hired was named as a Top 100 site in the online employment industry.

“Our Top 100 employment sites are the elite of the job board industry,” says WEDDLE’s Publisher Peter Weddle.  “They have the strongest brands, the best services and the most distinguished track records of the sites we’ve seen on the Web.  Are there other good sites out there?  Of course.  But the Top 100 selectees are truly in a class of their own.”

The site selection methodology included a comprehensive review of information submitted by the sites describing their features, services and fees as well as information provided by job seekers, employers and recruiters who have used the site.  In addition, each site was visited to assess its user experience and level of maintenance.

How Trendy is Your Career?

While looking for a job, it can be helpful to research different careers or industries to identify those that are on the rise—as well as those that are struggling. If you are interested in seeing how a particular career or industry is fairing (such as administration trends or healthcare trends), a great tool to use is Simply Hired’s Employment Trends.

The Trends tool displays the percentage of jobs that include your search terms anywhere in the listing as well as the percent increase or decrease since October 2007. This data, taken from millions of jobs in the Simply Hired index, graphs the peaks and valleys of your keywords over time.

If you are changing careers, this is a great way to see scope out jobs and industries that are doing well currently, as well as to see what skills are in high demand. For example, those people who are active and well versed on Twitter have many opportunities available to you. The graph for Twitter trends shows an increase of 3,096% since the end of 2007.

Twitter trends

If you are looking at multiple opportunities, you can look at multiple keywords on one graph to compare the frequency of the terms in all jobs on SimplyHired.com. Just insert a comma between search terms to see them side by side on the graph. (Ex: iPhone vs. Android trends)

Iphoneandroid

Also what’s really cool is that if you find an interesting trends graph for a certain keyword, you can share it with others by adding it to your website! To the right of the graph, you will see a “Grab This Graph” section. Just copy and paste the code to your site to embed it.

Using Transferable Skills to Change Careers

Finding a job or new career isn’t easy—especially if you don’t have the amount of experience a particular position you’ve been eyeing calls for. This holds especially true for new grads looking for their first job out of college, people facing a layoff, and those re-entering the job market after a long absence.

If you don’t have the experience required for a specific position, you may be able to utilize the skills and experience you do have to get that interview. Look at the job description of the position you are interested in applying for and ask yourself the question, “What have I done in the past that would make me excel in this position?”.  This will help you identify the transferable skills you can use to convince potential employers that you are qualified for a certain job.

So remember that package handler position at UPS you held during summers in college? That could translate into people skills, time management or logistical abilities, opening doors for a number of possible career paths. You could even use SimplyHired.com and search for those transferable skills in the Keywords field to find jobs where you could utilize these skills.

  Skills


Common Transferable Skills
Communication (oral & written, proficiency in multiple languages)
Research and Planning (analyzing, evaluating)
Organization (logistics, handling details, coordinating)
Management and Leadership (motivating, delegating)
Work Ethic (ambition, reliability, positive attitude)

No Experience, No Problem!

So you’re searching for jobs and find one that you think is great. But then you skim down to the experience area of the job description and see: 1-2 years experience required. There’s no need to worry. On SimplyHired.com, there are ways to find jobs where you need little or no experience.

Search for companies with training programs
There are many employers out there with great training programs to help those with little experience get started in their career. Doing a simple search of trainee jobs can give you a sense of these companies.

Some of the companies hiring for trainee roles include:

Search for entry-level jobs
You can do this either by including “entry-level” into your search, or you can perform your search using keywords such as skills, industry or company name and refine your results with the Work Experience filter to view jobs where 0-2 years of experience is required.

Example: Searching for company:Verizon then filtering down to jobs requiring 0-2 years of experience.

What’s your type?

If you are looking for part-time work or an internship this summer, there are still plenty of opportunities out there and Simply Hired is here to help!

When performing a job search on SimplyHired.com, you don’t necessarily have to include the words “part-time” or “internship” in your search fields (though you can definitely do that). Instead, you can search for keywords such as skills or industry (like Photoshop or Administration), or a company name if you already know where you want to work (use company:“Aaron’s") and filter your results down with the Job Type filter found on the left side of search results pages. This filter allows results to be refined by type, such as full-time, part-time, permanent, temporary, contract, volunteer, internship, and seasonal.

Jobtypefilter

You won’t be bored at home this summer when searching for internships and part-time jobs is this easy!
