Online Job Boards – How Do You Find Them?
Freelance writers who earn a nice income from their writing have a constant supply of interesting assignments with many jobs being coming from online job boards.
One way they find these assignments is through the many, many online job boards available today.
But how do you find online job boards?
Well, there are probably many answers to that question.
One way is to simply google “job boards for writers” or “freelance writing jobs” and see what comes up.
Another way is to network with other writers and find out the job boards they prefer.
Here’s a list of some my favorite online job boards.
Generally, I don’t look for jobs at sites that require bidding for jobs or posting my resume.
I prefer sites that list jobs I can apply for directly to the employer by submitting a cover letter and resume or whatever is asked for in the ad.
