If you’re looking for work, a little free advertising won’t go astray. Put yourself ”out there” on the world wide web so people know you’re available for work. Posting profiles on appropriate websites is a great way of doing that. Whether it’s s social networking site like Facebook or a work related site like Whatcanyoudo.com.au, online profiles can generate inquiries from people who are seeking someone with your skills. It’s a great form of free advertising.
There are numerous sites that will allow you to post a free profile online. Not all of them will suit the services you are offering so you’ll need to spend a bit of time searching and identifying the sites that are appropriate. It could be time well spent – the more free advertising you can do, the more prospective clients will see your profile and the greater the chance of obtaining work through free advertising.
It goes without saying that you should start by placing your profile on Whatcanyoudo.com.au, but once you’ve done that, here are some other websites that allow you to post a free profile:
nowhiring.com.au
mycareer.com.au
ployme.com.au
linkedin.com
helperhire.com.au
Social networking sites like Facebook can work well too – but if you already use a site for personal communication, it’s a good idea to set up a separate profile that is purely professional.
There are many more sites than those listed above. You’ll never catch a fish if you don’t cast a line or two, or ten – so post profiles and start exploring the world of free advertising that is available online.
