Job Search Tools Used By Real Estate Outplacement Firms

[Enzymnmak]

There is no doubt  the real estate job market is  horrible .  I think it is going to get worse .  I was laid off  and given outplacement for three months- I get access to different job search services as part of this. The outplacement counselors in this company are using a couple of tools which surprised me and I thought everyone would appreciate the advice.  They find jobs essentially by using paid services that research real estate jobs and charge a monthly fee.  They let us use the access codes and I got to say there are some powerful tools out there for locating jobs that the majority of people do not know about.  The career counselors find jobs and email them to us through two services I am aware of so far: Hound and RealEstateAndLandCrossing.  These two sites are completely different but both are very good.There are more real estate jobs on RealEstateCrossing than there are on Hound -but the Hound site researches jobs only direct from employer webites while real estate jobs on RealEstateAndLandCrossing shows you jobs from other job boards, recruiters and so forth. The biggest difference between using these sites and ordinary job search methods is that these sites research jobs-most other sites are typically just classified advertising boards that charge employers to advertise their jobs.  It is a real difference and something to look forward to if you are luck enough not to be looking for a job and have not been laid off-but may be in the future. .
