How do I search for jobs?

There are three ways to search for jobs: Simple Keyword Search, Advanced Job Search or Browse by Location. Click here to open the job search page in a new window, then follow the instructions below.

Simple Keyword Search: At the top of the job search page is a box that contains one text field and a Search button. Enter any number of words seperated by spaces into the text field and press Search. You will see a list of jobs that contain all of your keywords somewhere in these fields:

  • Job Title
  • Company Name
  • Company Overview
  • Job Posting Text
  • City
  • Category
  • Job Description
  • Job Qualifications
  • Mandatory Skills
  • Optional Skills
  • The keyword search will also search for words that contain your keywords. For example, a search for roof will return jobs with the words roof, roofer or roofing. This is equivalent of surrounding your search criteria with wildcards: *roof*.

    Advanced Job Search: We recommend this tool for advanced users only.

    Browse by Location: At the bottom of the job search page is a list of cities. Simply click on the name of the city you are interested in to see a list of all the available jobs in that city.

    Why should I register?

    Job Alerts - Receive daily notices to your e-mail inbox whenever a new job is posted that meets your criteria. Click here for more information.

    Jobs Basket - Bookmark jobs that interest you for later viewing. Click here for more information.

    Skills & Resume - Once you are registered you will be able to save your employment skills and your resume online, for easy access from any location. You can also view both in a clean printer-friendly format.

    Get listed - You may choose to post your Skills and Resume online so that employers can search for you.

    When you choose to register, only your full Name and Email Address are required. We need your email address in order to send your password should you forget it, but we will not contact you or give your email address or other personal information to any other organizations without your permission.

    How do I post jobs?

    You need to be registered in order to post jobs.

    Once you are logged in, go to this page to post a new job. You will also find a link to it on the left navigation menu, and two buttons to "post a job now" on the Employer Home page that will take you there.

    You are only required to enter the Job Title; all other fields are optional but it is suggested that you at least fill in the Job Description and Job Qualifications textboxes. Some of the fields such as Job Location and Work Schedule will be automatically filled for you based on the company information that you provided when registering

    By default your company contact information will not be provided with the job posting, but you may choose to display a contact name, email and phone number by unchecking the "Suppress Contact Information for Public Viewing" checkbox at the bottom of the page.

    Pressing the "submit" button will take you to a Conformation page where you can review the details of your job posting. Press the "submit" button on this page to complete the job posting, or "edit" to go back and make a change.

    Your job posting will not automatically be posted to the site. Please wait one business day for your posting to be reviewed by an administrator. You will receive an email when your job posting has been approved and added to the website.

    If the job becomes filled or unavailable before the 60 day expiry date, you may choose to close the job manually via the Employer Home page. Click on the 'X' button beside a job name to remove it permanently from the site.
