Other Search Ideas
Company Web Sites
Most companies will list job vacancies on their company web sites. Doing a little research about the major companies in your field and then searching Google or Yahoo! to find those companies' URLs could lead to beneficial results.
Government Jobs
If you're interested in working for the government, you might look at the following information about locating state and federal job openings.
State Government. Consider looking for state government jobs on the web. Most states have official web sites that list employment opportunities. Missouri's web site is at the following address: http://www.mo.gov. To find another state's official web site, try the address above, but substitute that state's two-letter abbreviation or full name in place of "mo." For instance, Arkansas's state page is at http://www.arkansas.gov, and New Mexico's state page is at http://www.newmexico.gov.
Federal Government. Browse to the U.S. government's official USAJOBS job search web site. Or look through Government Job Search, which is a similar resource but isn't sanctioned by the federal government.
