The book lists 350 of the top employment Web sites in 2001, covering a wide range of jobs. This book not only includes an organized list of Web sites, but each site has a half-page of key information providing details like the types of jobs found through the site, site owners, date started, site description, who post the jobs—employers, headhunters, or staffing firms—and other information regarding the details of how resumes are handled. The most useful aspect of this book is in the index, where all the major job areas are categorized. This made it easy to review technical job sites, which is what the majority of our readers are generally interested in. There are 20 sites listed under engineering, eight under science/scientists, and 42 under general. While the well-known general sites, like monster.com and hotjobs.com are listed, there are many other high-quality specialized sites listed. Another useful feature is in the regional index list. Here the Web sites are broken down into regions in the United States. Therefore, if you were looking in a specific area of the U.S. these would provide another place to research. While it appears that many of the sites are in the U.S., there is a separate index listing 22 international Web sites (five in Canada). This book is a great resource for today’s job searcher since so many jobs are listed on the Internet and the Internet provides quick and easy access to all the listings.
