Sometimes we need a little help. We get sick and our bodies fight illness back, but getting a boost from medicine can make it as quick and painless as possible\u2014and in some cases can even prove to be the deciding factor.<\/p>\n

Job searching is just the same way! You can get out there and pound the pavement looking for jobs, make use of your network, and polish that resume to perfection, but a little help goes a long way\u2014like when you\u2019re searching the web for opportunities.<\/p>\n

It can be tedious going through job boards every other day looking for positions that fit my criteria. Fortunately, I don\u2019t have to do that with LoggerJobs because I set up a Search Agent that automatically emails me all the new postings that I want to look at. It\u2019s super easy to do, and CES even has a video<\/a> that demonstrates it step-by-step in real time!<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re healthy, one great way to make sure you stay that way is to take a supplement. So if you already search for opportunities through LoggerJobs and InternshipLink, why not supplement<\/em> your search with Search Agents!<\/p>\n

For my Search Agent, I get notified whenever the word \u201cSpanish\u201d is used in any new postings. Already I\u2019ve gotten back suggestions like, \u201cSpanish Tutor\u201d and \u201cCommunity Organizer for Social Change,\u201d both great ideas for a guy like me interested in helping people and utilizing my foreign language skills.<\/p>\n

Now, just because I\u2019ll be alerted to all those new opportunities, it\u2019s far from the only thing I\u2019m doing in my job search. I\u2019ve met with CES Career Advisors, done informational interviews, Mock-Interviews, and I never miss a Career Fair<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Need a little help for yourself? Stop by CES, and make sure to keep reading CES Blogs for tips and to see what else you can do to prepare for life after graduation!<\/p>\n
