Top 11 Blogs For Job Search 2012

by Hannah Morgan on December 28, 2012

Selecting my favorite job search resources wasn’t as easy as a I thought it would be! I visit different sites for different reasons. I value sites that have high quality and regularly updated information. I also greatly respect good writing and no fluff, so what you see below reflects my preferences!

Here are a few of my favorite things….

Top Job Search Resources

brown paper package

Quintessential Careers: This is a go-to source for sample anything (cover letters, emails and resumes!)

Job-Hunt.org: An authoritative site with information anyone in job search should know about! Go dig around this site for great advice.

Savvy Intern: No, it isn’t just for interns! Always great writing (especially from Mark Babbitt and Dave Ellis!)

The Undercover Recruiter: A long-time favorite for his straight shooting insight, Jorgen’s site now accepts guest posts from smart career and job search pros and recruiters! Get current info here!

Personal Branding Blog: It is so much more than personal branding! And although it is “branded” by Dan Schawbel, there are many talented contributors!

Solo Sites

These sites have a single voice! Over the years, I have become friends with these talented writers/authors and MUST give them a shout out! I hope you follow/subscribe/read them too!

Keppie Careers by Miriam Salpeter

Career Trend by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter Brand

Executive Career Brand by Meg Guiseppi

Honorable Mention

These are sites that I can’t fail to mention!

The JobMob by Jacob Share

The Wise Job Search by Harry Urschel

Glassdoor Blog (also use this site for its company intel!)

Who did I miss? Lots I am sure! But these are my favorites and go-to sources. Add yours in a comment!

The best site I've ever seen for job search advice (no offense to the careersherpa, of course!) is Alison from AskaManager.org. Huge archives to answer all those questions.
