Indeed is the best I find. Outside of that C.V Library is good although I believe that's called Resume-Library for folks in the USA.

Hasn't he been doing unskilled labor? I'm pretty sure it'd be hard to find an interesting job in that field.

Careerbuilder is generally awful, so is Monster. Granted, depending on the work he's looking for (or you're looking for him to do), there are also specialized sites as well. Otherwise, you could always try LinkedIn.

If I was looking now I would probably use Indeed.

right now we're just trying to find anything decent paying that is entry level and will accept a bachelor's degree so he can save money to go back to school so he can become a dietician. but the only things i can find he'd be mostly suitable for is insurance work like what i do but idk that he'd like that. so i don't really send him those jobs. i sent him something in the health care field from careerbuilder that i saw though since that's closer to dietician work than insurance claim handling.

Is Indeed good? I've looked on there before but never really used it. I know it's probably the most popular, but I get a bad vibe from it, like my resume is going to get on there and then shady companies are going to start contacting me for positions that don't really fit (which has happened to me after using Dice and Ziprecruiter).

I mainly use Glassdoor and LinkedIn. I guess the same pitfalls can happen there, but the postings seem to have a little bit higher quality. I think the key is to make sure the site you actually apply through after you do find something is legit... maybe. I have no fucking clue. I always try to go to the company's actual career site once I do find a job on a big search site, but I'm not sure if they actually prefer receiving applications that way, or if the third party app site is legit.

Edit: To clarify, by "third party" I mean stuff like Careerboutique and Ziprecruiter. I've seen those come up a lot and I don't have a lot of confidence in them. I know that most companies also use third parties for their "in-house" applications, like Taleo and Brassring, but I tend to trust those more since they come from a direct link on their site.

i use indeed just to find the posting and apply on the actual site of the company who is hiring. i don't use indeed to apply to the job. never had an issue.

he tried but he's had a stroke.

he also doesn't want to be an emt because it's low paying, high stress and the schedule sucks. idk about administrative. i don't know that he's looked into it.

i'll tell him about idealist but i'm not sure what kind of experience he needs for those government jobs. the issue is he just has the degree and no emergency management experience. so he needs entry level experience for emergency management positions. so he'd had to find some administrative assistant positions in some emergency management departments.

usually we just split each date down the middle. so usually we don't pay for each other we just split each date 50/50 regardless of who gets what.

It's the least-awful of the major sites. It's relatively easy to use and it does a better job of screening out junk listings than some sites, but the search function is still kinda bad

And lol, ziprecruiter. At any rate, I've had more junk leads from my old Careerbuilder profile I haven't used in over five years and never got around to deactivating than I've had through Indeed.

Besides the fact those jobs are being lost to automation, factory work can have a myriad of negative health effects depending on the nature of the work and the level of sound.

1. That costs money to do, which costs time for the company to actually do, so it's fine for a reasonable amount of time (say, 10-15 years).
2. Wear your PPE then. Earplugs are always given where you go, you just need to know where to look.
