I'm currently looking for a job and have been posting my resume everywhere I can find. I signed up on one website, www.CareerBuilder.com, that scanned my resume and uses a "patent-pending recommendation engine" to suggest jobs that match my profile. It doesn't seem to work very well. They send me an email about once a week with a list of jobs. Keep in mind that I have a PhD and have worked in the oil industry for 5 years as a nuclear physicist. This week's job selections include:
- pharmacy technician
- polymer chemist
- psychiatrist/psychologist
- registered nurse
- nurse practicioner
- photo lab and retail sales associate (my favorite)
Also included are jobs "similar" to the ones above:
- blood bank supervisor
- driver
- paramedic
- loan processor
- dispatcher/transportation
- microbiology technician
- molecular biologist
- food production supervisor - entry level
- dental hygenist
It seems I'm qualified for more jobs than I thought!
