To search for jobs online using the jobs.com portal, you need to follow these steps:
- Go to the Jobs.com portal. Just enter that portal’s address (which you can obtain from the ‘links’ section below) into your browser. The browser will then transfer you from whichever other website/webpage you were at, to the Jobs.com portal.
- When you get to the Jobs.com portal, check within the middle part of the homepage, and you will notice that there are two spaces provided. Into one of the spaces — the one whose placeholder text says ‘What Job? — you are supposed to enter a keyword or keywords that describe the type of job you are looking for. And into the other space — the one whose placeholder text says ‘Where?’ — you are supposed to enter location information, for the state or city you want to work in. As required, into the first space, enter a keyword that describes the type of role you are looking for. For instance, if you are looking for an electrical engineering position, enter the words ‘electrical engineer’ into that space. Or if you are looking for a truck driver position, enter the words ‘truck driver’ into that space. If you are looking for a nursing position, enter the word ‘nurse’ into that space… and so on and so forth. Into the other space, enter the state or city you wish to work in. If, for instance, you are looking for a security position in San Francisco, you enter the word ‘security’ in the first space, then enter ‘San Francesco’ into the second space. If you are looking for a nursing position in Florida, you enter the word ‘Nurse’ into the first space, then enter ‘Florida’ into the second space… and so on and so forth. If you have no particular preferred work location, you can leave the second space blank. In that case, the jobs.com system would return all positions that are in line with the keyword you entered (in all locations).
- Having entered a keyword or keywords describing the type of position you are looking for and (if you so wish) a preferred work location, click on the ‘Search Now’ button. The Jobs.com system will then return all vacant positions that meet the entered criteria.
- Browse through the job openings that the system returns, until you get to one that is attractive to you/until you get to the one that you were looking for. Then click on the link for it. On the screen that you will then be taken to, read through the job’s description, and if it looks like a good fit for you, click on the ‘Apply’ button for it. Complete the application in the subsequent screens and then wait to see if you will be shortlisted/called for an interview.
Jobs.com government – How to find a government job through the Jobs.com portal
To search for a government post through the jobs.com portal, you need to follow these steps:
- Go to the Jobs.com portal, by entering its address into your browser.
- Once you are at the Jobs.com portal, enter a keyword or keywords that are descriptive of the type of government job you are looking for. Enter the keyword or keywords into the space whose placeholder text says ‘What Job?’. So you delete the ‘What Job?’ text and replace it with keywords describing the government job you are looking for. Then enter the state or city you wish to work in into the space whose placeholder text says ‘Where?’. Just put your cursor into that space, delete the ‘Where’ text and replace it with the name of the state or city you wish to work at. For instance, if you wish to work as a corrections officer in Kentucky, you enter the word ‘corrections officer’ into the ‘what job?’ space. Then you enter ‘Kentucky’ into the ‘where?’ space.
- Having entered the job keyword and preferred work location information into the respective spaces, click on the ‘Search now’ button. The Jobs.com system will return all jobs that meet the entered criteria.
