Create Job Search Agents

A Job Search Agent is an automatic job hunter. You tell the agent what to look for, and it will retrieve a list of jobs matching the criteria you entered. You can choose to have the agent's information emailed to you daily, weekly, bi-weekly, once every 30 days, or never. You can have up to five agents. To create an agent, click "Create new" at the bottom of the list of existing agents.


 
Agent Name

Enter a name which describes the type of job this agent will retrieve for you. Be specific so you can distinguish between agents if you choose to use more than one. (e.g. "Programmer, C++" for one, and "Programmer, Java/Javascript" for another)

Category Search

Select a category by clicking inside the Category Search box, scrolling to see selections, and clicking on your choice. To select multiple locations, hold down the <CTRL> key while clicking selections.


Keyword Search

Examples include programmer, SAP, telecommunications, Warrington, human resources, America Online, marketing, Manchester, etc. Keyword search tips.

Note: The search will not accept any characters that are not alphanumeric (e.g., "$"). Therefore, you may want to change the keywords in your search accordingly.
