Ironically, it's actually faster to scan a newspaper page full of want ads than it it to page through many screens to get the same information online. Here's Case in point: Not only am I a hiring manager, but I was a job seeker myself a few years ago. In fact, I lost my job twice in four months. Both times, I found a new job in a few weeks and both times I found my new job through the newspaper classifieds. And we're talking here about mid-management jobs in the $75,000 - $90,000 range. For the more rank-and-file positions, classified help wanted ads will be even more productive. Why Help Wanted Ads are Still Used Newspaper classified ads are used for a variety of reasons, but the bottom line is that for mid-level positions and below, they work. It's not uncommon for me to receive a couple of hundred applications when I advertise an opening in the major newspaper for my area. While you won't see many Vice-President and above positions in the want ads, you will see most mainstream positions advertised. There are several reasons for this: * They have been used for decades and everyone knows how to look at them. * They are relatively inexpensive for the employer. * Almost all newspapers of any size now have their help wanted ads online as well as on paper. It's the best of both worlds. * Help wanted ads are local. The employer knows that most job seekers will be local.

Here's the Best Way to Use the Help Wanted Ads For almost all newspapers, you can now find the want ads printed the traditional way on paper, as well as posted electronically on the newspaper web site. Help Wanted Ads on Paper The instructions for searching the paper want ads are very simple: pick up the newspaper and read it! However, read it productively. Here's how: 1. Read allthe employment ads, not just those in the category for which you're interested. The reason is that job openings will many times be in a completely different section than where you'd expect. For example, if you're looking for a medical supplies sales job, you should look in the "Sales" section of the want ads plus the "Health Care" section. You may even want to look in the "Retail" section. Go through all the want ad sections because you never know where you next job may be listed. 2. Circle in red all jobs that look interesting. Don't spend too much time thinking about it, just go quickly through all the want ads and mark ones that look promising. 3. Now go back and read carefully the ones you circled in red. Cross-off the ones that now don't seem appropriate or for which you aren't qualified. 4. For the remaining ones not crossed off, cut them out and enter them into the spreadsheet where you're tracking jobs you've applied for. Keep the ads you cut out in a manila folder labeled "Jobs Applied For" so that you'll know how the job was advertised if you get called for an interview. The Sunday newspaper is where most job postings appear, so be sure to at least look every Sunday.
