Job Hunting

i hear dice.com is better...

Have you tried a recruiter? My husband used to actually recruite for the high tech area. Typically these recruiting companies are paid by the hiring company not by the potential candidates. It also depends on the area you live in and how the job market is. One bonus if you get a good recruiter, they can give you some info on the person that is interviewing and the company and what type of questions or person they are looking for.

Thanks,


Although, I checked out Dice and found that there were not that many Canadian jobs posted there. Also I didn't find it to be very user friendly.

I did however happen to stumble upon a site called www.itfaction.com, let me know what you guys know of it.

I like that you can specify searches by certification, and there seems to be a lot of jobs in the GTA.

Once again if you guys have any other suggestions I'd like to hear em.

heh -- itfaction has a `keyboard' at the top that plays a sound when you hover over it...

Did you try jobs.ca ? This is a link to a search on MCSE as the keyword: http://www.jobs.ca/jobseekers/search.asp?lang=EN&ses=&qkey=mcse&qcity=&qcat=

From Boston with a Boston Terrier I love it.

Anyway I checked out that Link and applied to a couple so thanks a lot for your help.

I don't want to sound like a broken record but this IT Faction (www.itfaction.com) although a lot smaller than your average jobsite, is quite effective. (The fact that it's strictly IT weeds out all the junk jobs)

In their profile it says they only went live in May 2006. I wonder if they plan on growing and competing with the likes of monster, cuz I'd for sure be loyal to em.

Thanks re the doggie avatar.

I looked at the site and it's not particularly well put together for a search in Boston. I ran a search, for laughs, and made it just for Boston, and it pulled jobs from, among other places, Ontario. I hate to break it to them, but Ontario is a bit far of a commute for me.

Good luck re your job search.

This is certainly an active forum, isn't it?
