What You Need to Know About a Job Loss
4. Expect online job boards to be (somewhat) a waste of your time.
Most people who find themselves back in the job market immediately jump online and start applying for jobs through job boards.
While you want to use all the resources at your fingertips, you also want to use your time wisely.
Since 80% of the current workforce found their jobs through networking, 80% of your job search should be spent networking.
The other 20% of the time should be spent searching and responding to job ads, preferably with a more targeted approach through LinkedIn, professional associations, company websites, and select job boards.
The more specific the job board, the better, as opposed to a large “one-size-fits-all” job board.
