Resume Writing & Career Marketing Insider

New Online Goal-Setting Tool

Just today I learned of a great online tool for setting, managing, and reaching your personal and career goals. www.myGoals.com

The site has been featured in publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, and USA Today, and provides assistance with nearly any goal you can imagine. Goals are grouped by categories. A few examples of categories of interest to people engaging in a job search or planning a career change are Careers; Time Management & Organization; and Education & Training. There are many more categories for those who want to pursue personal goals. The site offers a 10-day trial and then a monthly subscription of $5.95 after that or 12 months for $49.95.

New Web Services for Job Seekers

I recently discovered an extraordinary new site that will be invaluable during a job search: www.simplyhired.com

This site offers a vertical job search engine that pulls jobs listings from job boards, company pages, online classifieds, and other data sources. You can filter and refine your search, create private notes to yourself about individual postings, browse listings by locations, send postings to yourself or a friend by email, and much more.
