Times are tough. Many are without employment, and most can use a little help finding a new job. Hopefully, these 10 Web sites will help you along your path to work.

HigherEdJobs

Does working on a college or university campus sound appealing to you? Don’t worry that you have to be a college professor or have four degrees to work on a campus. Colleges all have other jobs that need filled, from administrative assistants to janitors to police dispatchers and more. And, of course, there are job listings for those teaching positions. HigherEdJobs is the perfect place to find employment at a college or university anywhere in the U.S. or even internationally.

Idealist.org

Perhaps you like the idea of working or volunteering in the non-profit sector. This Web site lists all kinds of jobs from all over the U.S. Maybe you would like to work for the American Red Cross? Or how about finding a job with a smaller, lesser-known, grass-roots organization? This is the place to find those jobs, as well as some government jobs. But there’s more than just job listings on this site. You can also donate to your favorite organizations, and you can join the forums to voice your opinions.

BlueCollarJobs

Doe you have a background in manufacturing? What about plumbing, machine operations or any number of blue collar jobs? This site could be for you. You’ll not only find plenty of listings for blue collar work with many, many companies, but you can also use this site to read some free magazines, check on the latest employment trends, build an online portfolio and more.

BankJobs

Ever work in a bank? Or want to? Or maybe you think being a bank teller doesn’t sound very exciting. That’s okay, because this site has more than just bank teller positions. Listed are loan processing jobs, executive positions and even bank jobs that aren’t necessarily tied directly into money, such as janitorial work or computer technology, etc. Just one more potential tool in your job hunt. And even if you don’t think you would be interested in working for a bank, I suggest spending some time perusing sites such as this anyway. Why? Because you might be surprised at some of the job listings. Maybe you don’t think you’d want to work for some place, in this example a bank, but you might find a job in the field that suits you perfectly. In these tough times, you’ve got to think outside the box.
