in Job Search Websites

Www.simplyhired.ca is a Canadian job meta-search site. It finds job listings from many sites across the web, including other job search engines, job boards, classified ads, and company career websites. To use SimplyHired, you simply enter the position title you want, and the city and province or postal code of your residence. You can also specify the language of the position listing, either in English or in French. It then provides a long list of results, which you can filter by time, location or title. Used in this fashion, this site functions like any other employment opportunity search sites.

However, the true magic of www.simplyhired.ca comes in when you also log into your Facebook account, using the “Login to Facebook” link at the bottom of the page. Once you have done this, the search engine will pull the job titles and companies of all your friends, and compare it with the available position openings that it can find. It will then highlight the position openings in companies where your friends are already working. This way, you already have a foot in the door as you can get recommendations and references from those friends. There is also a function where you can send a private message to your Facebook friend to ask them for a recommendation.

If you intend to find employment opportunities in the United States of America, you may visit its’ US site at SimplyHired.com.

Tips: To increase your chance to find what you are looking for, you should try several other careers websites such as www.Indeed.ca/jobs and the like. One is not enough.
