Job Searches/Career Planning
Best Job Search Sites in Snohomish County
If you are currently looking for a job and you are on this website, that tells me that you have access to a computer with internet! You, my friend, are on your way to getting hired. There are so many resources available online to get you ready, where shall we start? If you are fairly independent and you already have a current resume, I would say your best bets are Washington Worksource or Craigslist. I would be cautious when using Craigslist, never submit your personal information unless you know it's a secure application. Also, NEVER go to a private employer alone. Worksource is a safer option and it allows you to upload your resume for employers to search for you (or at least your qualifications and experience).
If you are currently under 18, you are going to have other issues in your job hunt. I strongly recommend that you actually go to your local Youth Worksource Office. They will help connect you with every support needed to land you a job. You can have a professional look over your resume, or help you create one, they will train you in how to interview, and fill out your applications. Youth Worksource is for anyone age 16-24 years old.
