Job Hunting

Job Hunting Overview

We want our job hunting to be as efficient as possible!

Indeed is a great starting point, but there are many other job boards out there, as well as other creative options.

Keep in mind that many of the jobs posted on Indeed will be for approximately 15+ hours and have a wide variety of tasks that your client will need to complete.

Important Information: If you aren’t finding any jobs that match your client’s job goal, then you should try another approach. If you have a client who is looking to work minimal hours and is looking for a more customized approach, you should employ other strategies.

Stopping by the business in person usually yields results if online methods aren’t coming up with anything.

Job hunting is done in the Find Phase Service.
