Recently we were tipped off about a new site that does combined searches on job postings. This is an excerpt from their site below:

Web 2.0/social media sites specializing in job searches or job postings use social media to list online job postings and other related items. Such sites could use items such as user generated content (UGC) and other mechanisms as the avenue for informational exchange.

The tool descriptions below were provided by the tool vendors. Descriptions do not reflect the opinions of the Department of Labor or any of its grantees or contractors.
