I sometimes get asked by job seekers which websites I think are the best to find a job. That is a really tough question to answer, and the only real answer I can ever come up with is, "it depends". It depends on the type of job you're looking for, whether you are looking nationally or locally, whether you belong to any professional organizations - the list of caveats is almost endless.
However, one of the sites that almost always ends up on my recommended list is Andrew Hudson's Job List (http://www.andrewhudsonsjobslist.com/). Andrew started a newsletter years ago highlighting opportunities in the public relations, communications, and marketing arena. The newsletter circulated at first only to his friends. But then friends of friends wanted in, and what started out small has now grown into a full-fledged job site listing positions in lots of different areas from sales to human resources, information technology to Non-profit. We regularly use his site when we have an opening and he always seems to deliver top quality candidates.
That said, the real reason I'm mentioning him today is that he has also recently started a careers blog (http://andrewhudsonsjobsblog.com/) that is full of useful tips for job seekers. He offers a unique and candid perspective on the realities of the job market and the job search. If you are not familiar with what Andrew has been up to you should take a look. Its one local resource that's too good to pass up!
