From Jobs Wiki
You might want to cycle between this phase and the Self-Assessment phase. The Informational Interview and other Networking are also valuable tools at this phase.
Check the job boards to see:
- What companies are hiring and would you be interested in working for them?
- What kinds of jobs are out there and what are the skills required for those jobs?
- Where are the jobs that interest you ... would you consider relocating?
Check these salary sites to figure out what your salary goals should be:
- GlassDoor.com
- This is an interesting site. You register and provide your own current or former salary information, and you get access to salary information provided by other people. Identities are strictly protected - you just get the positions and the reported salary ranges.
- Many of the job board sites also provide salary calculators.
