Use the Internet as an Online Directory for Finding Potential Employers

Perhaps you have in mind a certain type of industry you that you would like to work in (i.e. Insurance Brokerage, Computer Repair Consultancy, Customer Service Center) and want to find even more companies that may have potential job openings for you near your home in addition to the job openings you have already found on the net.


You can perform a search though Google for companies by type of company or service as opposed to just looking for job openings.

For example, if you are a Computer Networking Technologies student, you can search, for “Computer Repair” in zip code 11201 by Typing in “Computer Repair” 11201.

You will then be prompted down the results page to “Local business results for "Computer Repair" near Brooklyn, NY 11201”

Click on the link and see hundreds of local listings for companies that may have job opportunities for you. Go to their website to search for job openings, email or send a letter to the hiring manager or call directly to inquire about job vacancies.

Think of the type of companies that would be looking to hire someone with your skills and let your fingers do the walking.
