Hello:
While on my latest Job search, I created a custom Web page for my
private use listing all known Job Search Sites. From this basic page, I
have moved on to create a complete web site named: Job-O-Magic
(www.jobomagic.com)!
News Update:
I'm happy to say that Job-O-Magic has now hit 1,000 sites and the
project isn't even close to being done!! I can't seem to get off this
trek to find all known search sites. I still have 904 sites left to
visit. As of this point I'm guessing maybe 700 of the 904 sites will be
added to the main list. So many sites are front-ends to other sites,
and more, a lot are just 'work-at-home' sites or sites that offer the
world but you need to sign up and give them your email first.
Some fun facts:
I currently have two off-line databases. I created a custom application
to manage all my sites off-line that help in my job site search. The
first database is my links database of possible sites. As of this point
that database holds 10,319 sites. Out of the 10,319 sites, I have been
to 8,303 sites! When I find a job search site, I transfer it to the
main off-line database to recheck for possible submission to Job-O-Magic
where I collect as much information I can about each site. If/When I
get done adding the 904 sites, I'm then going back to searching the
2,016 sites in hopes to find the EOI (End of Internet).
Other Good News:
I'll be moving Job-O-Magic to a new host soon getting it off the current
DSL host I'm currently using. A great friend of mine will be giving me
free hosting and in return, Job-O-Magic will always be a free site
without banners or popup ads.
To those that have asked me 'why?'
Answer: Why Not!
And for those that may have not seen this message before, here's a
little of what Job-O-Magic offers the job seeker:
The Job Search Site list on Job-O-Magic itself gives you the following
information:
- If site is free for job seekers - Note: Removing sites that are not
free
- If site is free for job postings
- Site's geographical location
- Site's Industry and category focus
- If site is a local site or offers a local site for your area
- If site offers an e-mail Job Agent
- If site allows you to submit your resume
- If site give you your own URL to posted resume
- If site offers statistics on your resume's activity
- The overall rating users have given the site
- Total number of visits a site has had from my site
- A score of 0 to 1000 graded the features the site offers
- Each site even has its' own forum for you to comment or read up on
what others have to say.
Most of the information about the sites is based on my job search here
in Oregon. But the site is open for suggestions. You can send me any
information you may have on a given site and more, help me out by
sending me information that I may have missing such as sites that have
'N/A' info. Any information you send me will only help others.
And the best part about Job-O-Magic is it has no banners or popup ads!
This is just a fun project that I'm working on and plan to keep the site
active when/if I ever find a job.
