Every time you turn around, someone else is out of work. Even people with high end jobs that you would have never imagined being without a job are getting let go and finding themselves on unemployment for the first time in their lives. With everyone fighting for the same jobs, how can you get an edge? Employment classified ads are a great way to start!

Usually when you talk about employment classified ads, you get a look that basically says people are not interested in even starting because everyone has access and we are all rushing for the couple of positions that are available. The trick is to work the system in your favor and take advantage of all the different aspects of these employment classified ads.

First, we have the print media. Newspapers, magazines and other publications all have classifieds featuring employment ads. The key to being successful with these is checking them every time they come out. Everyone does know about the huge help wanted section in the Sunday paper, but how many people are checking the mid week edition and also checking the smaller employment classifieds that appear each and every day. How about the local businesses that advertises in the community paper? They can't afford to put an ad in the Sunday paper so they put it in the weekly that is only distributed in your neighborhood. The more you check, the more likely you are to find something.

Now it is time to slide over to the information highway and see what is available. The internet is going to give you access to more employment classified ads than you can ever possibly imagine. These are going to take some time and skill to get through as there are a decent amount of scam artists on there and ads that don't belong in your category, but you will get used to how to get through them after a while. Once you work out the right keywords, you will be flying through them like a seasoned veteran.

While many may not consider job boards like Monster and HCareers employment classified ads, what else would you call them? They are merely one large help wanted ad. This is where you can really spend some time. These sites have everything organized and there are also a ton of industry specific job boards that can help you pinpoint opportunities across the country.

Now when you take your break from job hunting and go update your MySpace page, you can also look for some jobs there. You would be surprised how many businesses are using this outlet as employment classified. Do a little surfing and the next thing you know you might be collecting a real paycheck again.

Okay, we have been doing reconnaissance to this point, now it is time to go on the offensive. Start doing you own posting! All of but the print ads will allow you to make your own posting for free. You would be surprised how many employers sift through these sites looking for people that are looking for work. A great idea is to start up a blog and create another link where you can have your resume posted and put this link up on a classified or on a social page.

When you get to the job employment classifieds (the job search boards like Monster), you can post your resume right there for perspective employers to see. You can also set your profile to send you daily, weekly or monthly alerts with new postings. Now this is putting employment classifieds to work for you!
