Search work

1. Email Alerts: 

Email Alerts are a great method to stay up to speed on the newest job openings from any job board or corporate jobs site. Signing up for notifications will notify you whenever a job matching your search criteria becomes available, saving you from having to visit several websites every day. Indeed combines job postings from many job boards and career sites, ensuring that you receive the most complete list of open positions. Alternatively, you may use Google Alerts to monitor job openings from the firms you're interested in, as well as any press releases or corporate changes that may be relevant to your search.

2. Google Homepage: 

The Google Homepage service will be retired in November 2013, but you may still use it to create your 'Job search dashboard' until then. You may subscribe to RSS feeds from many employment sites and have up to 9 of the most recent jobs from each site displayed side by side using iGoogle widgets. The widgets are often updated and provide clickable links to live job adverts. This gives you a 'at-a-glance' picture of all the open positions available without having to visit each site individually. You may also include additional essential widgets like Gmail, Calendar, Google Maps, and even a currency converter if you're hunting for overseas employment.

If you don't want to use iGoogle, there are free alternatives that operate similarly, such as uStart.org.

3. LinkedIn: 

The popular professional networking site LinkedIn provides several chances for job searchers to interact with recruiters, future employers, and industry peers. It may provide useful information and leads. Most firms and recruiting agencies will have a presence on LinkedIn and are willing to contact with job seekers via LinkedIn groups or one-on-one. You may also utilize LinkedIn to learn as much as possible about a prospective hiring manager and his staff.

4. PocketResume:

 If you've been out of the job market for a long, your CV is definitely out of date. If you don't have the time or patience to sit in front of a computer and create a fresh CV on a big piece of word processing software, PocketResume is for you. It is a simple software for smartphones and tablets that enables you to quickly build professional-looking CVs. Your CV will subsequently be transformed into a PDF and sent to the next recruiting manager.

However, keep in mind that utilizing a service like this may restrict your personalization options and that you may still need to prepare a Word document version of your CV.

5. Google Drive + Dropbox: 

Most job boards and recruiting websites experience the most traffic throughout the week, with peak periods during working hours. While you may be permitted to do your job search at work, a copy of your CV may not always be on your work computer. By storing your CV on Google Drive or Dropbox, you can access your data from any device and apply for jobs anytime you need to.

7. Evernote: 

Evernote is a productivity application that enables you to save and organize online clippings, photographs, videos, and documents, as well as import handwritten notes and voice recordings into one location. Evernote syncs across devices and offers a powerful search function that should make sorting through your files simpler. Consider it a virtual file cabinet where you may organize all of the information you have about each job you apply for. The astute job seeker will save a folder for each position that contains the job description, the CV you submitted, links to the employer's career site, contact information for the recruiter, and post-interview comments.

9. MyInterview Simulator:
