Monster.com I am in the process of posting my resume on Monster.com, and was wondering if any of you have done the same, and if you did, did you have success in finding a job through their website?
It is taking longer than I thought, because I have to fill out a "resume" (grrr, I thought I could just upload the resume that I already have). I also have to fill out an "application". I am just wondering if this is worthwhile, or if I am wasting my time. Any and all feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm registered with them...I've gone on a couple of interviews through them and I think it's a valuable resource. Good luck! | |

Last I heard, hotjobs.com was the "hot" online employment site of the moment...I'd still register with monster.com, though, cuz you can never be too hooked-up. Also, look into Craig's List, which should have a local bulletin board near where you live - look it up on Yahoo. It's a good resource, too. | |

Also, FlipDog is pretty good. | |

Thanks, guys!  I'm also in the process of posting my resume on Cleveland.com, a local website where I live. I'm bound to get some calls if I register enough online and with employment agencies. ~crossing my fingers~RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Hey, psycho,
I'm also a Cleveland orger who has used Monster.com. It does work -- I got my last job there. Just be patient. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I would also email a copy of your resume directly to the employer and a physical paper copy. The only replies I've ever gotten from anyone on Monster.com were people I contacted directly. | |

Yep, it IS small... so I hope we aren't competing for a job in the same field here in Cleveland!  Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

lol -- probably not, Lammastide, since my work field is administrative assistant.
But I did post my resume on Cleveland.com and Monster.com. Took forever for me to fill in all of the fields, especially the employment part, since I have a lot of experience! I'm hoping that generates some leads. Good luck in your job hunt, I hope you find something soon. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Poland is about an hour and a half southeast of cleveland. Its a snotty litte suburb of Youngstown. | |

My brother used to live in the Youngstown area some years back. Thanks for responding to my post.  RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Tom, I actually think I recall chatting with you a few years back on AOL. We had a few brief chats about Prince, but we were rarely in the same chatrooms.
Anyway, My brother and his fiance live in Boardman, Ohio. How close is that to Poland? Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I think Boardman, Ohio is close to Youngstown, from what I remember. It is also where former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar used to live.
Good news on the job front, I just posted my resume yesterday, and already I got two responses from companies that want me to come in for an interview. Wish me luck!   RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |
