when you are looking for a job, do you prefer to use internet to find job or do you use newspaper to find a job?
im looking for a job now, both newspaper and internet,
but the advantage of internet is you can also send your resume to the company you want yo apply.

Internet job sites are the best source for searching and applying for jobs. I always prefer internet over newspaper for the same. Internet can give your resume more power to reach to prospective companies looking for staff. Through internet you can search for all kinds of job not within your city but also in the whole world but the local newspaper just provides job opportunies limited to your city or nearby areas.

When Im looking for a job I use both, the internet is great for finding opportunities not only locally but in areas surrounding the area you live in. In my opinion though newspapers still hold an important role in finding jobs as alot of smaller companies do not have websites or take the time to list available positions online.

Its good to use both the newspaper and internet.. Advantage of using internet is you do not need to spend fare in finding that job listed in the newspaper. In internet you will just upload your resume, sit back and relax and wait for their reply.

I think it's best to do some of both. Some companies prefer a hard copy of your resume and any work samples you may have.

hi asliah,
When I was a newly graduate student, I tried to check not only the newspaper, but also other sources of information like the internet, tv and radio. I believe that we can get information everywhere. We can also ask some relatives or friends about job openings.However, I can say that internet helps me more to find a job rather than reading a newspaper or listening to radio or watching tv. I agree with you that it is faster to apply via the internet because we can also submit our resume online.
