The Job Newsgroup Directory is a comprehensive list of links to the best Usenet Employment Newsgroups to utilize in your job search.

The Usenet Job Newsgroups, also called Google Groups, are a very productive source of employment information. Thousands of positions are posted to the various Newsgroups each day and these opportunities are often overlooked by most online job seekers. Many Employers, Recruiters, and Employment Sites automatically post their positions to the Newsgroups; and the groups serve as a Meta Employment Search Engine. The Newsgroups are organized by function and/or geographical area.

Newsgroups exist for resume, interview, career and other job search topics and information. Managers, professionals, or executive job seekers should never post resumes or use the newsgroups for a direct response to a message. Newsgroups are not private and you do not want your personal information or contact information available to anyone with an Internet connection.

Besides the Categories listed below we have several specialized job search web site Directories. The Job Meta Search Engine searches millions of jobs in seconds and finds the jobs that match your specific search criteria. It is the most powerful Job Meta Search Engine available on any career web site. The Job Search Site Directory is organized by function and includes links to more than 4,000 Sites. State specific Job Search Sites are located in our State Job Search Directory. City specific Job Search Sites are found in our City Job Search Directory. The Newspaper Directory is organized by State.

RSS/XML technology is relatively new and may replace or supplement the newsgroups as a job search tool. The XML/RSS Job Search Directory is a list of links to Career Advice and Employment Sites offering XML or RSS Feeds.
