Isabont becomes Virtual Job Coach

Job search organiser website Isabont has now become Virtual Job Coach.

Isabont, now Virtual Job Coach, provides tools for managing a job search. It has some similarities with Jason Alba's JibberJobber site.

The name 'Isabont' meant 'Is a Bridge', bont being Welsh for 'bridge'. This referred to the idea that the site was a bridge to the next job, providing all sorts of helps with CV/resume writing, job search tracking and contact management.

Barry Simpson, the site owner, has wisely decided to change its name to something more understandable and memorable to job seekers.

Virtual Job Coach offers:

• CV/Resume and Cover Letter Wizards
• Calendar and To-do list
• Mobile phone and E-mail Reminders
• Networking
• Organisation
• Application Tracking
• Contact Manager
  
• Company Information
• Job Listings: leads from the top sites sent to you.

Jobsearch Directory Listings

In order to be sure you are searching all the main jobs boards, it is helpful to have a list of these. A good place to find such a list is in web directories, such as Google, Yahoo! and the Open Directory:

• Google Directory - Job Search
  
  
• Yahoo Directory - Job Listings
  
  
• Open Directory - Job Search

It's helpful to be able to locate the main jobs boards for the country in which you are job hunting. Here are the relevant pages for the UK:

• Google Directory - UK Job Search
  
  
• Yahoo! Directory - UK Job Search
  
  
• Open Directory - UK Job Search

I would encourage you to locate the directory pages that apply to your country.

When searching each of the main jobs boards, it is a good idea to set up a profile and upload your CV / Resume, as then the employers and recruitment companies can find you!

You will notice that there are a variety of types of sites listed, as well as the main jobs boards. There are specialist sites, and also some more unusual sites for bringing employers and potential employees together. It's worth investigating these different sites, in order to find new and more creative ways of putting your skills and talents before an employer.
