Not to leave any one industry or profession out, I thought I would continue on the “Who’s Hiring” theme and cover Marketing and Advertising today. As with most career choices, they tend to be industry specific and not always easily transferable. You sometimes need to cast a wide net and cover all angles to be successful in finding your next opportunity. For that reason, I’ll try to cover a cross section of Marketing opportunities from various sources.

• Onlinemarketingjobs.com – The tag line for the site is “Job Site For Online Marketing Jobs & Careers”. The site covers a broad range of jobs and careers (which is listed on the main page). The upper left-hand side of the main page has links for Job Search, Register, Jobs by email (alerts), Audio Interviews and a list of who’s hiring. Featured jobs are listed on the main page with a quick search function as well. This is a global site, so you will need to set your country. Clicking on “A-Z Who’s Hiring” revels a list of companies that are hiring.
• Fristoe & Carleton – Fristoe & Carleton is a search and recruiting firm that specializes in Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations recruiting. Their main page lists new opportunities and has links to Job Opportunities, FAQ’S, Resources and more. Clicking on “Job Opportunities” leads to a page that allows submitting your resume, job opportunities and career alerts. There were 16 featured jobs on their site when I checked. There is also a helpful link to “Working with Recruiters” and “About Us” provides Bios for some of the firm’s staff.
• Indeed.com – Leveraging Indeed.com’s advanced job search and entering “Marketing” and “Advertising” in the field “with at least one of these words” (click here for this search) yields over 239,000 jobs. Limiting that to employers only (should filter out recruiters but is not perfect), still yields over 200,000 jobs and further limiting that to Dallas yields over 4,900 jobs. The point is, you can leverage the advanced search functions of some of the job boards to focus your search to the the opportunities that suit you.
• Mediajobmarket.com – “The market place for media professionals” is the site’s tag line. The main page hiring trends with media news on the left-hand side of the page. The center of the page has “mediajobvine” which lists current and featured jobs. Top of the page has tabs for Search Jobs, Post Your Resume, Career Resource Center and more.

As with all industries and careers, don’t forget trade publications and associations. For today’s topic, a short list of publications: Adweek, Mediaweek, Brandweek, Editor & Publisher and Billboard.

Good luck in your search.
