Job seekers Vote on Best Job Boards

For the eighth year, Peter Weddle has surveyed  thousands of jobseekers to find out which job boards they like best. The top 30 vote-getters — among 150,000 job boards and social media sites — were selected as the Weddle’s 2012 User’s Choice Awards.

Weddle — who also conducts research designed to identify best practices in online recruitment and job search as well as publishes guides to employment sites – notes that the poll is not scientific, but does indicate intensity of support among users. Ten of the winners are all-purpose sites, while 20 are niche sites that specialize in a particular career field, industry, geographic location or personal attribute.

“We believe customers count most,” he says. “While pundits will always have their favorites, it’s the people who use the sites who really know which are the most helpful.”

Two dozen of the winners are repeats from the previous year — with the first-time winners being EmploymentGuide.com, HealthCareerWeb.com; JobsinLogistics.com; Military.com; Net-Temps and TopUSAJobs.com.

The return winners are Absolutely Health Care; AfterCollege.com; AHACareerCenter.org; HigherEdJobs.com; HospitalDreamJobs.com; Indeed.com; AllHealthcareJobs.com; CareerBuilder.com; Climber.com; CollegeRecruiter.com; CoolWorks.com; Dice.com; EHSCareers.com; FlexJobs.com; Hcareers.com; HealtheCareersNetwork; Job.com; Jobing.com; MilitaryHire.com; Monster.com; National Healthcare Career Network; SimplyHired.com; SnagAJob.com; and VetJobs.com.
