Job-Search Tips Use the Power of Monster.com’s Search Features to Find Your Dream Job

Search by Job Title
When you begin entering a term in the Job Title search box, options for common job titles that include that term will appear in a drop-down menu. Select one or keep typing to narrow your search.

You can also do a more general search for a department, such as “Accounting,” to broaden results.

Search by Skills or Keywords Job-Search Tips
If you want to work with a specific skill or process, you can conduct a search based on those skills.
For instance, a search for the word “editor” as a skill brings up potentially relevant jobs that include that word in their description.

Industry-Specific Job Search
You can also search for roles in specific industries. If you’re seeking a marketing job in the pharmaceutical industry, for instance, you would put “marketing” in the title section and “pharmaceutical” in the skills section.

Job-Search Tips
