Within the job hunting industry, there are several types of job search engines to accommodate both job seekers and employers. SnagAJob is one of those types, tailored specifically for hourly workers. Targeted especially toward high school and college students, SnagAJob hosts a number of job listings that serve as a connection between job seekers and employers.

    Features

  1. SnagAJob is a website designed to connect job seekers with employers in need of a work force. Its services are for hourly jobs only, but it includes job that are part time, full time, seasonal and even internships. Job seekers can search by job, industry and location to narrow the list of available jobs. The website also has email notification of new job listings for subscribers. SnagAJob also has programs for employers, including small businesses. It has low job-posting fees that include several tactics geared toward finding workers.
  2. Function

  3. Job seekers register for an account with SnagAJob, a service that is free of charge. They then search the database of job listings, narrowing the search by industry, location and job type. When you find a favorable listing, click the "Apply" button that appears with every listing. SnagAJob will let you either submit your resume or connect you with the employer's application website. Employers use SnagAJob by paying the fee and submitting information for their job posting. SnagAJob will direct applicants to the employer's account.
  4. Considerations

  5. Sometimes jobs are posted on the site long after they have been filled, so check the date of the post before applying. Also, read the job descriptions carefully. Some are only looking for employees to fill their talent pool, and may not offer you a job immediately. Also, understand that not all duties are posted in the listing. Ask about that information during the interview process.
  6. Benefits

  7. SnagAJob is a place for high school and college students to find work without wading through a list of professional jobs that they are unqualified for. It is a place for employers to find workers willing to take hourly work because they are looking specifically for that type of employment. SnagAJob's job notification saves time that would have been spent combing the listing for new posts every day. Instead, the job seeker can focus on other things while waiting for new jobs to post.
  8. Geography

  9. SnagAJob is located in Glen Allen, Virginia, but posts jobs from all over the country. No matter where the employer or job seeker is located, they can search and find what they are looking for within their local area.
