Tips for Web Searches

  • You'll find that job searching on the Internet mostly involves looking for employers, not want ads.
  • Search the classified ads of newspapers that are listed on the Internet.
  • Watch each employer's home page (if they have one), where you will find the most recent job listings. Or send them a resume directly .
  • The two most helpful search engines in finding environmental jobs are Excite and AltaVista since they seem to index and update job postings quickly .
  • Take time to read the instructions for search engines and learn to use their extended capabilities. For example use the (+) and (-) operators to force words to appear in the pages or to screen pages with certain words .
  • Also use Boolean operators such as AND and OR and (~) which means 'near' .
  • Try at least a dozen different searches each time you look for a job .
  • Check out the list of useful Environmental Career Related websites on the next page.
