Google Alerts

Secret Stuff: Ive used Google Alerts most recently to

assist an individual with very unique skills. We were

able to pull employment posting one to three days

prior to the postings appearing on some of the major

job boards. This resulted with distinct advantage in

the job search process. Google Alerts also pick up

openings from Craigslist and many smaller boards,

most of which do not show up on the major job

boards.
