- THE EMPLOYMENT BBS LIST
- Version 0.3
- 10-01-94
-
- Introduction
-
- This list and review was compiled by the staff of the Executive Connection
- Information System. The following listings were gathered from several
- sources, including several national BBS lists, tag lines, discussions in
- job related conferences, magazine articles, and network node lists. In
- every case the system was contacted within 30 days of the publication date
- of this list. If we could not make contact with a system, we have not
- included that board in this list.
-
- If you know of a board that should be included in this list, please leave
- a message on the Executive Connection at 214-306-3393 (Online), FIDO
- 1:124/9032, Internet staff@execon.metronet.com. If you are the sysop of
- one of the boards listed here and any information is incorrect, or
- changes, please let us know. This list will be issued on a regular basis.
- The most recent release can be FIDO file requested using the name employ,
- or by sending an e-mail message to employ@execon.metronet.com.
-
- The information contained herein is correct to the best of our knowledge.
- No warranties are expressed or implied. This list may be freely posted and
- distributed in it's entirety as long as it is not modified in any way. It
- is not to be distributed via echo mail conferences.
-
- Job Seekers
-
- Since a call to most of these systems will be long distance we suggest you
- review the section on conventions for a better understanding of the features
- of each of the boards listed. Don't overlook the help that might be
- available on your local boards. Many sysops carry the job conferences from
- FIDO, Rime, Jobnet, Internet etc,. and these conferences can be an excellent
- source of job information. The best employment board is the one that helps
- you find your next job.
-
- The boards are divided into six main sections: 1) Independent
- 2) Recruiter Sponsored, 3) State & Local 4) Federal 5) Company and
- 6) Internet Employment Resources. Independent boards typically carry
- information and job listings from a variety of different sources and the
- information is updated on a periodic basis. Regular calls are required
- to get the latest lists. 2) Recruiter Sponsored boards typically include
- a resume database and once you upload your resume you have been entered
- into their system for current and future consideration for the jobs they
- have available. It is not necessary to call these systems on a regular
- basis. 3) State & Local boards are operated by state or by local
- governments. Information on the state and local government boards is
- updated on a regular basis and periodic calls are necessary to obtain the
- latest information. 4) Federal boards are operated by the Federal
- Government and only include listings of government employment. All the
- OPM systems have much the same information and it is not necessary to call
- multiple systems. The job vacancy information is updated on a weekly basis.
- Some of the independent boards also carry federal employment information
- from the OPM boards. 5) Company Sponsored boards are limited to current
- positions available within the organization. 6) Internet resources
- includes a variety of different types of employment related information.

-
- FOCUS: Where are the jobs located and what industries and functions
- are included. National focus means you will find positions
- available nationwide. Regional focus means that the positions
- are generally limited to the section of the country in which
- the board operates. Local focus means that the positions are
- generally limited to the metro area in which the board operates.
- A National focus always includes regional and local positions.
- If the jobs are generally limited to a particular function or
- industry this information is noted.
-
- FEES: Free or Required ANY charge for FULL system access and the
- board is designated as fee required.
-
- FILES: Only job search and employment related texts and files are
- considered. The age and utility of the files are also a
- factor. This entry does not refer to job vacancy lists and
- files only to employment and search information and tools.
- The classifications of limited, good and extensive are
- subjective evaluations.
-
- CONFERENCES: Only job search and employment related conferences are
- noted. Conferences designated as Local are not echoed outside
- the system to other boards. Network conferences related to
- job search and employment are noted by network and conference
- name. See the conference listings for more details on the
- content of various networks. Conferences often contain the
- most current employment information available and are very
- important resources.
-
- RELATED SERVICES: Activities, services, and products available to
- assist the job seeker find suitable employment. Typical
- entries include resume database, resume services, recruiter
- lists etc. Additional fees or charges for these services
- does not influence the FEES Free or Required status of the
- board.
-
- JOB LISTINGS: Factual and subjective comments on the number, type,
- age and utility of the positions listed on the system and
- the method used to access these positions. Our preference
- is for systems to permit viewing, searching and downloading
- of all job listings. On several systems we could not gain
- access to the job listings without a paid subscription. In
- some cases we elected to pay the fee on other systems we
- declined and have made note of the fact that we did not have
- complete access.
-
- COMMENTS: Remarks and observations that may assist the job seeker
- in selecting a system to call. Please note that every system
- included in this list has the potential to be an asset in
- the search process. In compiling this list we called 100s
- of systems and most did not meet the minimum criteria we
- have established.

- ON THE INTERNET
- _______________________________________________________________________________
-
- We have not attempted to compile a complete guide to the employment
- resources available on the internet. While the internet contains 100's
- of sites and locations with employment information much of the infor-
- mation is too specialized, or other wise unsuitable for this list.
- What we have attempted to do is list the major sources of employment
- information available and suggest a few sites that provide gateway access
- to the major and minor sources of information. Our policy of calling
- every site listed in this list within 30 days of publication applies to
- the following sites as well. However, what works for us may not work
- for you.
-
- GOPHER
-
- Most of these services can be accessed through GOPHER, a menu-driven
- worldwide system of information systems. You can connect to gopher either
- through your local gopher server or by telnetting to a public gopher site.
-
- seymour.md.gov login: gopher
- cat.ohiolink.edu login: gopher
- consultant.micro.umn.edu login: gopher
-
- Once you are connected to a gophersite, select the menu entry Other
- Gophers or something similar to this, followed by All the Gopher Servers
- in the World. If you have a local gopher client on your system, you can
- try connecting directly to a gopher site by typing "gopher node.domain"
- where "node.domain" is the Internet address of the gopher you want to
- access.
