Fainting Goat's - Job Hunting Resources

* Looking for a job? Sorry! We're not presently hiring but we feel for you -- so we've created a pretty terrific list of local and national job hunting sites.

Wishing you the best! Fainting Goat

 

Quick tip:  don't send your resume by MS Word - it's susceptible to viruses & will likely be trashed without having been opened.

Instead, convert it to a PDF using a free and tested software:
 
PC users will download the software from this link:  http://www.pdf995.com/
 
Mac users will download the software from this link:   http://www.tucows.com/preview/204632 
 
After the PDF converter is installed on your computer & your computer has been restarted - open your resume in word & select print.  Instead of printing to your default printer, you'll select PDF 995 if you've installed the PC version or Print To PDF if you installed the Mac version.  This action will create a PDF et viola - your resume may now be actually read!
 
And don't forget to send along a PDF of your work samples if you're an artist.
 
Here are some great local and national job-hunting sites:
