Beyond.com is an employment website that caters to job seekers who need advice on how to find a job, in addition to showing vacancies. People need help with navigating the global landscape of job opportunities. The business environment and economy have gone global, giving companies access to labor all around the world. For a very long time, Americans only had to think about local competition for jobs. In many cases, there were enough positions to go around, and everyone was able to share the wealth. Today, job seekers have to go beyond conventional thinking. The "Career Resources" section helps job seekers understand the significance and importance of creating a resume that is attractive to hiring employers. Many people might use a format that is not conducive to their job search presentation. For example, if you have large gaps in employment, the chronological resume that lists your starting and ending dates of employment will make that obviously clear. Unfortunately, in 2011, reputable news outlets began to find signs that employers don't want to hire people who have been out of work for a long period of time. Instead, if you are long-term unemployed, consider the functional resume, but be aware that many employers feel more comfortable with the chronological format. The Career Resources section also includes self-assessment tools to help you make sure you meet the current requirements to work in your career field. The "Career Articles" section of Beyond.com helps to explain in personal and laymen terms why employers are scrutinizing new hires, now more so than ever. Contributing writers who have experience with employment compose these articles and blogs, commonly based on their experience from working in a human resources capacity. You can interact with the authors using the email feature to send a message through the Beyond.com platform. If you wish to publicly comment about the content of the article, there is that option as well. Finally, when you are ready to find employment in your area, you can click the "Search Jobs" link at the bottom of the Web page. You can enter keywords that reflect your job title, and the website will return those listings that closely match, including variations in your career field that you may have never considered. Beyond.com does an excellent job of presenting the education and experience that each employer mandates for their job listing, as well as salary information.
