It can be tough finding a job. Old fashioned lore has it that the best way to find one is through personal connections. But there are new tools available with online listing services.
For instance, in the midst of a nine percent national unemployment rate in the 2011 recession, the website Indeed listed 5,000 or more jobs in Brooklyn.
The jobs ranged from medicine to nursing to tutoring to social work to project management to banking to dental hygenist, and more.
Of those posted, the vast majority were posted by employers, not recruiters.
Also, see Workforce1. It's a free, 21st century job matching system for New Yorkers of all ages, educational levels and work status.
