Job search is a job in itself. There was a point in life when it seemed like all I ever did was look for jobs. One of the reason is because even though I had a job, I either wanted something better or just wanted to test myself and see if I could land something better. As a result I have been through many offices, picking up job application forms and have spent countless night on the web finding sites that offer job tips and advice.
As a veteran job seeker, I have come across quite a few sites related to jobs and career which I am sharing today. Feel free to add to the list.
