1. The first thing you need to do is determine what kind of job you are looking for you.

You can also search for careerbuilder.com, monster.com, yahoo hot jobs, indeed.com, craiglist.com, simply hired.com and usajobs.gov. These are all popular sites to find a job. Visit every website and do a job search using the keyword of the job you are applying for.

3. Once you find a job you like, apply directly. Upload your resume. Most websites require you to first register for membership at the website before applying for the job. Craigslist is the only place that does not require this. Note down the phone numbers of hiring manager or recruiter of every company you send your resume to. Call all the companies to make sure they have received your resume. Make sure you are able to speak with the hiring manager or recruiter. Inform them of the resume you sent and ask them to look at and consider you for the position.
