  1. Now I am looking for a job. And I think some websites really helps me and some are no use for me. Luckily, I have the career center to help me revise the resume. Currently, I use Monster.com and GlassDoor.com to search for a job and these really helps me. But before I use these two webs, I used Handshake to search the job and it was helpless for me. So here is other web I can try, such as JobHero.

  2. This article is very useful for people who are looking for a job and don’t know what steps to take. I know many qualified people that are interesting in finding a job, however they don’t know what each workplace is looking for in particular. These digital tools provide the answers to any questions someone may run across, therefore making it very useful.

  3. I had trouble on starting my job search process months ago and realized that there are better ways in approaching my job search process after reading this article. Particularly using websites JobHero (to search for job opportunities), Jobscan (to have the best resume I can have), and UptoWork (to get my resume out to recruiters). I plan on looking into all of these websites.

  4. I tried Grammarly and found it also offers a software for Microsoft Office. It is really useful and efficient. No matter I edit my blog or revise my resume, it always helps. Moreover, JOBSCAN offers me a chance to preview whether my resume can match what companies are looking for.

  5. As a matter of fact, tehre is a lot of websites help you to build resume, find jobs and track application. I use internship.com to search internships. I prefer this website is because the reply rate is high and you will get your feedback quickly comparing other job searching website.

  6. This article lists great resources for those searching for a job. I know that finding a job after graduation can be challenging, but with the right tools applying for a job can be easier. Building a resume can be a daunting task but a strong resume is essential for any professional. LinkedIn is a very popular website that connects employers with potential employees, and I believe that the website would benefit from having a feature similar to these websites. The websites listed provide helpful and detailed information.

  7. This is super useful especially for our international students. I already use Grammarly for a few months, it’s even more sensitive than the Microsoft Word, can guarantee my emails, my writings are error-free, make me more confident and efficient. The point I am saying is that sometimes we do need to embrace the great development of high-tech, tools can enhance the quality of our work and life.

  8. I love this article because I am somebody looking for an internship for the upcoming summer, and will be looking for a full time job after graduation. LinkedIn and Handshake are two of the main sites I have been using to network and apply for positions, but I am certainly open to other sites. This post made me visit a lot of the listed sites, and job hero was my favorite. It is so specific to a position as it tries to perfect your resume and cover letter for a specific position, which is incredible.

  9. This is a really helpful post! As an international student, I am always afraid of making errors in my grammar. After using Grammarly, I feel more relaxed because Grammarly will correct my errors in time and will help me express my opinions. Glassdoor is also a good website for me to look for jobs. When looking for jobs, I value the working environment of the company more than the reputation of the company. Glassdoor gives me the resources that I want and help me know deeply about each company.
