Problem: Your business is growing faster than you can keep it together. If you don’t get help, and soon, you’re going to lose money because you can’t handle all the clients. Where do you go to find good help immediately?
Solutions:
Craigslist. If your city has Craigslist, then you should take advantage of it. Powered by people, Craigslist has eliminated the middleman once occupied by recruiters, temp agencies, or the newspaper classified. Find administrative help, writers, editors, accountants, and anything else--including freaks, so be careful.
Monster. If you need that middleman to give you a sense of security that your next administrative assistant won’t be another Craigslist freak, then your best bet is Monster.com. Monster charges $1,395 for five job postings or $575 for a 2-week, 100-mile search--and their traffic is a fraction of Craigslist, which is totally free. CareerBuilder gets even less traffic than Monster.
Local Advertising
If you are not in a major city, advertising locally may be your best bet for finding good talent. Many counties have job boards that enable you to post for a lot less than Monster. And, you may be surprised at the number of responses--including highly qualified candidates--that you get from advertising in your local newspaper.
Others? Add info about HotJobs (Yahoo), Dice, or more please!
Job Hunt - A Wetpaint wiki about recruiting from the candidate perspective, it gives ideas about where candidates are looking.
