Finding all Nursing Jobs

Finding a new nursing job can be difficult, hard because you never know for certain if you are being considered for all the nursing jobs that your qualified for. It is common to feel that you are not finding the majority of open jobs. Many nurses will spend a lot of time bouncing from one job board to another applying to the open jobs that are posted there, but are the services available there really even worth your time and effort, when most job seekers just want to find a site where they can find all the nursing jobs?

All major job boards make it very easy to stay on their sites for long period of time applying to open nursing jobs

Most nurses will find it surprising and disappointing to know that applying to advertised jobs is one of the lease effective way to land their next job.

It is true that job seekers receive all the services available at job boards free. But, when employers actually pay all the bills by buying advertising and access to resume databases, the big job boards offer all the effective services to the employers.

What The Job Boards Dont Want You to Know Monster offers up little more than 3% of the available jobs. They pull in a large numbers of Internet visitors, but each of those job seekers is competing for a relatively small number of open jobs.

It is no wonder that employers love the big jobs boards. In competitive markets, each advertised job fetches an average of 500 resumes.

Knowing how many resumes a hiring manger receives, it should be no surprise to find that they spend an average of 7 seconds looking at a resume.

What is a great deal for employers actually puts the job seeker into the proverbial small fish in a big pond. Imagine knowing at the outset that you have less than a 1/2 percent chance to be considered for a job interview?

The big job boards make tons of money from employers, but they offer little value to the job seeker. Several State Employment center studies show only 5% of job seekers find employment through advertising.

The big job boards actually make more money by limiting the number available openings you can search for. Even if you bounced from Monster to CareerBuilder to HotJobs, youd find less than 10% of the advertised jobs on the Internet, and youd spend a lot of time hopping from site to site.

Savvy job seekers know there is a role the big job boards play when looking for their next nursing job, but they also know not to waste time searching a tiny pool of available jobs.

Looking for work is a full time jobs, and you dont want to put your time and effort into activities that dont pay off. Answering every open job ad is one the least effective ways to find work.

Meta Job Search Engines Dont confuse Monster, HotJobs, and CareerBuilder with job search engines. They are job boards, publishing only the jobs that employers pay to publish. You will find a tiny percentage of the advertised jobs on those boards.

The place to look for 99% of all advertised openings is to use a meta job search engine specializing in nursing jobs at My-Nursing-Career.com. For broader searches, the two best meta job search engines are Indeed, and SimplyHired.
