Writers, teachers, secretaries and other non-technical types are increasingly turning to the Internet to find employment, according to a new ranking of Top 25 jobs searched via the Web by CareerMosaic.
Working beyond their "comfort level"
Maybe it is just the fact that labor shortages are so tight that companies are digging a little deeper for management candidates. But more likely it's a creeping realization that risk takers are rare - and they are likely to have learned a lot in the crucible of failure.
Here's a tool that cuts both ways - but one nobody wants to do without. Today there are more than 500 career sites out here on the internet where workers can list their resumes and employers can find them. It's great for both - workers find they can tremendously increase their exposure to exciting and highly paid jobs, and companies can increase their talent pool and save lots of money. For example, Intel budgeted about $10,000 for the right to unlimited listings on a variety of job sites. This seems like an incredible bargain compared to the established practice of paying up to 25% of an employee's annual salary to management recruiters, or $20,000 or more for a full page newspaper ad.
