I don’t know of any good job boards unfortunately, but #FediHire and #GetFediHired on Mastodon might be helpful, I remember some people being able to land jobs at companies that use little to no AI with it.
Unfortunately, a lot of it comes down to personal connections. Seems to be the only way to cut through the noise these days. I know this isn’t a satisfying answer for young people starting out who don’t have that network.
I’ve started going to as many local industry meetups as I can in my city so I can get connections. It really is a who-you-know market now.
Its probably better to run your own 27B model that pretends to be a blonde conservative woman to steal crypto from chuds across the globe.
If that doesnt work its back to going to the business websites directly.
How does one set this up? I could use a side hustle.
27B? These chuds are reading at a 16B level at best.
😂
Had good luck with hiring.cafe but it you’re adverse to the use of AI in making a site functional then you’ll have to skip it.
More of a search engine, you don’t apply through site it just gives you links to the company hiring site.
When I was unemployed over the summer this was one of my daily search methods. I found more jobs that were actually applicable to me than on LinkedIn or Indeed, although it’s worth noting that they don’t have every company on there. I’d recommend adding any companies you want them to scan (there’s a form where you can drop the link to their hiring site) so you don’t have to visit all of your preferred employers manually.
Thanks for recommending it, I’ll give it a try. I don’t care if AI is used to make it, if anything that could make it better because cost of production is lower meaning they don’t have to do shitty things like putting ads and fake jobs.
I care about whether AI is being used to create fake jobs which is why Indeed and LinkedIn are now completely unusable. AI recruiter questions should be illegal. Not to mention I kept getting job recommendations on Indeed for things that require 5+ years of experience in Radiology for instance even though my background doesn’t fit that at all.
For local tv/radio jobs, it’s usually the state broadcasting association job boards. Not every industry has an equivalent, but a lot do.
I unfortunately have no great suggestions. I’m at my wits’ end with this stuff. And Glassdoor got scooped by Indeed, so that’s off the table. If you have applicable skills, try city/county civil job boards and local colleges/universities. It probably won’t be remote, but it won’t be too far away either. I truly wish you the best with your search.
Thanks, things will be okay. I think more people need to vocally speak out about how absolutely garbage unusable LinkedIn and Indeed are for actually finding jobs now.
Yeah notice that luckily still twice gotten a job using Indeed but blind luck. HireCafe is okay bur no luck locally for me. Screw Monster. But job boards suck and are getting worse with them all embracing AI. At moment goimg work my new day job while trying get my business off the ground.
For tech jobs, news.ycombinator.com still has its monthly “who is hiring” thread, though it’s mostly AI jobs now.
