You should be familiar with the Microsoft Windows operating system and using a browser to surf the Internet.\nWe will be going over the basics of using the Internet to find employment resources. We’ll learn how to safely search for jobs, create a professional online presence, and keep track of applications. If you do not feel comfortable with any of the activities, it is totally fine not to participate.\nPlease let the instructor know if you have questions or concerns before the class, or as we go along.\nYou Will Learn How To:\nHOW THE INTERNET CAN HELP\nThe Internet can be an important tool in finding and applying for a job.  As you are probably aware, it is often difficult, if not impossible, to apply for many jobs today without access to a computer, the Internet, and an e-mail address.  In addition, when filling out electronic applications (or even filing for unemployment checks), it is necessary to be able to navigate and fill out online forms.  While this can be frustrating and sometimes intimidating, the Internet also provides great opportunities for you to expand your job search, and to engage in both active and passive job seeking strategies.\nSeven Job-Searching Functions of the ’Net\nGetting advice on job searching, writing resumes and cover letters, interviewing, and more (e.g., go to www.google.com and search for “sample cover letters”).\nResearching a career by searching for career-specific websites using a search engine (e.g., search for “careers in banking”).\nSearching for a job using a national job bank (e.g., careerbuilder.com, indeed.com).\nSearching for a job using a local job bank (e.g., TriangleHelpWanted.com).\nSearching for a job using a career-specific job bank: Find these using search engines (e.g., search for “teacher job bank”).\nSubscribing to e-mail listservs for specific careers: Find these through the websites of professional communities and associations.  (e.g., The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)).\nResearching a company: Find the website of a potential employer using a search engine and then find out more information about jobs, the company, and more by looking around their site.\nLetting Employers Find You\nWhen conducting a job search, you can make it easy for employers to find you online. Employers, who can be inundated with resumes when they post jobs, sometimes seek candidates before they post a job. They often look for qualified candidates who aren’t necessarily looking for work, but who may be interested if the right job comes along. Anyone who doesn’t want to pass up on a potentially excellent opportunity should make their professional credentials readily accessible online.\nCompanies continuously search for candidates on websites like Monster.com or LinkedIn.com, mining the Internet to find the best people to hire, regardless of whether the candidate has expressed interest in their company or not. Companies also use technology that will find applicants for them, using focused keyword searching by location, education, prior employer, job title, and skills.
