Arm Yourself with These Job Hunting Resources

A successful job search is more than just good timing. The resources that you use are key and could make the difference in the length of time that it takes to find a job. If you're in the fashion industry, you'll want to use some or all of these resources. I'm sure you're already reading Women's Wear Daily which has a classifieds section for jobs. There's also the obvious search engines like hotjobs and careerbuilder.com. Indeed.com is a search engine that compiles jobs from other websites, newspapers and other resources. Here are a few other essential resources that you may find handy. I've personally used them or have registered with their service throughout my career and have been in communication with them as recent as last year.
