How do I search for job while currently working?

I%26#039;m ready to move on from my current job to another satisfying job. I%26#039;m glad I have this nice dilemma because usually I%26#039;m looking for a job unemployed. So how do I go out looking for another job without quitting my current one?|||Look up recruiter or employment agencies in the yellow pages. If you don%26#039;t have enough time to search for a job after work, this is definately the way to go. Make sure you call each agency and find one that only charges you after being employed by the new company. They get paid to %26quot;sell-you%26quot; and it truly might open up more doors than just looking in the paper. Many recruiters have contracts with companies that only announce job openings through their agency. Good luck finding happiness!|||Post your resume on sites like Monster.com and see if you get any nibbles. You can also search the classified ads in the Sunday newspaper, but a word to the wise dont fax your resume from your current office, if you get caught doing so it could cost you your job.





Once you get some responses try to set up two interviews a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon so you can give yourself enough time to spend at each interview, in case you have to meet multiple people.





Also, get a headhunter involved, they do great work. Just make sure that its the company paying them and not you. If you find the right one you could land the job of your dreams!





Good luck!|||Try browsing the internet to see who is hiring, then in your days off go out and fill out applications.|||Carefully.





When you interview, don%26#039;t give specifics about your current employer.





Use an agency.|||Find another job the same way you%26#039;d look for one if you were unemployed: by networking. Most people still get jobs via networking - inform everyone you know (except co-workers!) that you are seeking a new opportunity. If you can, go to lunchtime or before- or after-work networking functions in your industry.





Job boards will get 100%26#039;s of resumes for each job posting, and only a tiny fraction of all jobs end up getting posted on job boards anyway. The good jobs will be had via networking. Good luck!
