Networking events are great for:

• learning of new job opportunities and sharing some with others
• practicing your elevator pitch and learning from others’
• handing out business cards and receiving others

And more.

Plus, you get these benefits even if the event isn’t industry-related, or even if it’s not technically called a “networking event” at all.

Here are 20 websites that you can use to find local job fairs, networking groups, industry events or any other kind of event that can help your job search.

20 Networking Event Finders

1. Google

You can often find local networking groups and events by simply googling:

• “[where you live] business networking”
• “[where you live] networking events”
• “[where you live] social network”

Or trying the same on another search engine.

In fact, try at least one other search engine such as Bing or Duck Duck Go (the best search engine you’ve never heard of).

2. Lanyrd

Sign in with Twitter and you can see event suggestions based on what your Twitter contacts are planning to attend. You can also subscribe to their email newsletter for event updates, and you can use the Search Lanyrd box to manually look for events.

A cool feature of Lanyrd is the ability to follow “guides” which are curated event lists by topic. You can also create your own guides to stay organized (if you’re a heavy event-goer) or build your personal brand, by creating something valuable for the Lanyrd community.

3. Twitter

Use Twitter Advanced Search. Take advantage of the (albeit not great) “Near this place” filtering by area. You can also try searching by hashtag, since many events now have a dedicated one. Even better, search on the word “event” with a hashtag for the place name e.g. #NewYork or #Jerusalem.

4. LinkedIn

Check out the events that your connections are going to attend via the events section, ordered by date or popularity.

5. Meetup

Once you sign up and tell Meetup where you are, the Find page will suggest Groups or Meetups (events) near you, or you can manually search for events that interest you anywhere else.

6. Facebook

Go to the events page to see if you’ve been invited to an upcoming event. Use the Search box to look for events directly. Ask your friends, or even ask other people by posting a question on the Wall of a relevant Fan page.

7. Upcoming

In the right-hand search box, type in the location where you’re hoping to find events.

In the left-hand search box, type what kind of event (e.g. job fair) you’re looking for, or just leave blank to see what comes up.

8. Yelp

Same as for Upcoming:

In the right-hand search box, type in the location where you’re hoping to find events.

In the left-hand search box, type what kind of event (e.g. job fair) you’re looking for, or just leave blank to see what comes up.

9. Eventbrite

The homepage will suggest local events if it can tell where you are (it thinks I’m in San Francisco but this is probably just by default).

Your best bet, especially if you don’t want to create an account, is to click on the Find Events tab and search there.

10. Eventful

Type [your city] in the Location box and [event] in the next search box. You can use the Advanced Search to refine dates or search on venues, which is handy if you live e.g. near a convention center.

11. ZEvents

All events are listed in the local time. Use the “What,” “When” and “Near” search boxes at the top of the page to look for events in your home area.

12. Craiglist

Choose the location you want to search in the right-hand column and then use the search box located in the left-hand column.

13. Twtvite

Sign in with your Twitter account to search for Events by “location, keyword or hashtag” (many events now have a dedicated hashtag). Click one of the city photos to jump to a list of local events there.

14. Socializr

Sign-up for an account to share events and check out local events from other members.

15. NetParty

Browse local networking parties in different cities across the USA, Canada, Europe and South America.

16. Outside.in

Currently USA-only.

Type in Neighborhood, city or address in the search box and you can see Latest Headlines, Blog Posts and (social media) Updates from that location, which might include event announcements but usually won’t.

17. 4Networking

The Events page lists what’s coming up. Very UK-oriented.

18. Business Scene

Another UK-oriented site, you can search their event listings by region or keyword.

19. Findnetworkingevents

UK-only.

Search events by clicking the Events by Region, Events by Town/City, or Events for Women tab.

20. SimplyNetworking

Click on the Event Types or Future Events tab to see upcoming business networking events around the UK.

Me neither.

I learned a lot in high school, but there were some critical topics that the teachers never mentioned.

1) Parenting

Carrying an egg around for a week isn’t parenting. The sad thing is just doing that class assignment would have already put you “in the know” compared to most other high school graduates.

Looking at how you were raised by your parents will rarely prepare you for the real thing, which is why so many people agonize before having kids and then get stressed out when they do. Or worse, they become bad parents.

2) Financial Literacy

Can you read a company’s financial statement? Could you read one when you finished school?

Let’s try another example- do you know what the difference is between an asset and a liability?

Most people aspire to buying their own house for when they decide to settle down. Seems like a good asset to have, right?

Think again.

As long as you’re paying off the mortgage on that house, it’s a liability, a debt to pay off, not something bringing you any immediate returns. And because you’re covering a mortgage, you’re actually paying much more than the house cost the bank to buy it for you in the first place.

3) Job Search

People should love job hunting. It’s a chance to do something better, to raise your standard of living, to move up in the world and improve life not just for you, but your dependents as well.

So then why does everyone hate looking work? Because they were never taught how to do it. As a result, they lack self-confidence and steel themselves for potentially months of the resume-interview-rejection cycle and should hardly be surprised when they meet those low expectations.

What you can do now

If the educational system won’t educate you, you need to educate yourself:

Read – there are many terrific blogs (such as these job search blogs), self-help books and guides that can teach you but do yourself a favor and start reading BEFORE you need to make life-changing decisions on these topics.

Learn – consider enrolling in an online course, local seminar or workshops with experts who have a proven track record for what they teach.

Network – join support groups, discussion forums and social media sites whose members have similar experience or better. Try to find a mentor you can follow to success.

Why you can trust this list

First of all, I was very careful to only choose sites that are credible so you can believe their numbers.

I was also careful to choose sites that have their own numbers, and aren’t simply using reports from global sites like Payscale.com

This is a guest post by Will Kerr. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines.

When you’re preparing to launch yourself into the lion’s den of a job interview, you’ll usually be entirely focused on your own performance, from planning out your dress, to ensuring you’ll look your best, to perfecting your handshake.

While all of these preparations are undoubtedly vital, they make it all too easy to lose track of the fact that an interview is a dialogue and, by its very nature, is not all about you.

Unfortunately, how well you interview is only half the equation. You also have to hope you get an interviewer who knows what they’re doing.

As someone who’s been on both sides of the table, it becomes immediately obvious when you’ve been lumped with an inexperienced interviewer.

This is never ideal, but, as long as you are able to recognize the traits of a bad interviewer, you can take action to make sure that, in spite of them, you still manage to give the best possible account of yourself.

Here are some 3 common scenarios that can arise with a poor interviewer and tips for handling them:

1) An Interviewer That Does All the Talking

If you’ve ever interviewed for a fairly high pressure role, or one that requires a good deal of assertiveness, you’ve probably been on the end of interviewing tactics designed to weed out those who are too passive to succeed.

One classic example of this is where an interviewer remains almost silent, an aggressive technique that can make those of a nervous disposition feel uneasy and lead to them babbling on. Indeed, the police even use this method in interrogations.

Of course, this is the preserve of experienced interviewers who know exactly what they are looking for. At the other hand of the spectrum, as you might expect, you’ll often find an inexperienced interviewer doing the exact opposite; talking endlessly (possibly as a result of their own nervousness) to the point that you’re struggling to even get a word in.

In some cases, you may feel that this is because the job is in the bag and they’re desperately trying to sell its appeal to you, but this a dangerous assumption to make. Even if your interviewer doesn’t seem overly concerned to hear more about your credentials, you owe it to yourself to make sure that they have the necessary evidence to make an informed choice when, hopefully, they offer you the post.

2) An Under-prepared Interviewer

There is nothing more disheartening than going into an interview, only for it to soon become clear that your opposite number isn’t 100% clear on who you are, and isn’t particularly familiar with your resume. Indeed, in some cases, where a department is trying to fill multiple vacancies simultaneously, it’s not unheard of for an interviewer to be a little hazy as to which role the candidate in front of them is actually applying for.

Alternatively, you might be lucky enough to be one of selected few candidates being interviewed for a high level position, a role which requires senior staff to be present at interview. In this case, you can find your interviewer is clearly distracted by their many other concerns, recruitment not being their primary responsibilities.

Either way, you’ll have your work cut out for you. In some cases you’ll have to simply remember that, in giving your answers, you cannot assume the level of knowledge from your interviewer that you may have expected. So, for example, if you give information in reference to something listed on your resume, make sure they actually know what you’re talking about.

If you really feel the situation is hopeless, do not be afraid to ask if they’d prefer to reschedule. As long as you pose the question in a polite manner, it won’t reflect badly on you, and even seem considerate. Besides, if it’s come to that, you don’t really have anything to lose.

3) An Overly Aggressive Interviewer

Many people, when placed in a situation that they are not completely comfortable with, can respond by bluffing bravado. Interviewers lacking in experience are far from immune to this.

This is worth bearing in mind if you’re sensing a combative atmosphere in your interview, if your opposite number interrupts you midway through a response, or openly contradicts you for instance. Whether this is a deliberate ploy, or a sign or nerves, your only option is to keep calm and carry on.

One great way of doing this is to have a glass of water to hand. Even if you’re not thirsty, taking a sip is a great way to give yourself a little time to surreptitiously keep your cool and order your thoughts.

1. Join a new community

Find a new forum or niche social network and become an active member of the community, participating for at least 15 minutes every single day until you are a recognized expert on the basis of your participation alone.

2. Create a new community

Sometimes creating and building a new community might seem easier than trying to stand out in an older established one, or you might have discovered a part of your industry that is under-served, either online or in the real world.

3. Launch an initiative

In your industry, is there a fight no one is fighting? An issue that you feel isn’t getting as much attention as it deserves? Become the motor for change. In 25 Easy Ways To Grow Your Personal Brand in 5 Minutes, I suggested you “start an industry-related petition” but that’s just one example. Launching initiatives is also a great way to build a community.

4. Go on a speaking tour

Who would be most interested in hearing you speak?

What kind of audiences have you had in the past?

Where else can you find more such audiences?

With those thoughts in mind, plan a tour. Start small, aiming for 3-5 events in relatively close succession, where you can give the exact same talk, tweaking as you get a feel for the audience response.

As you get comfortable, you’ll also have more inspiration about where to speak next. As you impress people, others will come with invitations for where to speak next.

5. Launch a guest post campaign

If you’re a blogger, more comfortable in front of a screen than a live audience, prepare 3-5 blog posts and offer them as guest posts to large/leading blogs in your industry. This is a great way to generate exposure for any new initiatives, communities or websites launched (or that you’re planning to launch).

6. Become a regular contributor to a newspaper, magazine or group blog

Put yourself in front of a new audience on a regular basis, building your brand as they get to know and trust you. The results aren’t as immediate as a guest post campaign, but there’s much more potential over time.

7. Explore other forms of media

Writing online? Try creating an audio podcast series. Already doing that? Go into video. Have that covered too? Try offline content, whether contributing to mainstream media, putting out a press release, or other.

8. Launch a new website

If you’re not yet blogging, start.

If you are blogging already, considering starting another blog, similar but different in its perspective, such as an “ask the expert” type of blog.

Other types of websites you could start are forums, galleries, social bookmarking networks, e-commerce sites, etc. Just remember that the new website should be industry-related or very close to it. You want to grow your personal brand, not dilute it.

9. Volunteer a service

Look for an entity that has either a large audience or an influential one, and then offer a free project or service. Ideal choice if you can get it- the standards body in your industry.

10. Release a free resource

Have an idea for some sort of content that you know people will find valuable? Perhaps a special report or video? Create and release it for free, encouraging people to share it openly with each other, spreading knowledge of your brand wherever it goes.

I’ve been to job fairs in Canada, France and Israel but the Techeads Israeli Hitech Job Fair on March 6th 2012 was the first job fair I’d been to in a while.

I had originally planned to go to a recruiting event at the same conference center, just in a different room. When that was canceled, I ended up spending almost the whole day at the job fair instead. And I’m glad I did.

After meeting almost all the company reps at the fair and speaking to well over a dozen attendees, here are some thoughts on that job fair and other job fairs in general.

13 thoughts

1) What’s in a term?

Is it a job fair or a career fair or an employment fair?

They’re all the same. Local culture will decide which one sounds normal to you.

2) Student job fairs but never adult job fairs

If it’s a student/college/university job fair, or just an internship fair, it’s pretty clear who the fair is for- students and graduates. Otherwise they’re usually open to everyone, but why is it that there are no fairs aimed specifically at older/experienced job seekers?

3) Size matters

At large fairs, you almost have to make an effort to not be productive. So many company stands, so many people milling around for you to network with. If you put in the time, your biggest worry should be not getting to see everyone that can help you.

Small fairs are higher risk. You might waste time by going, but at least it won’t be a lot of time. I remember going to a small job fair in Montreal at a motel. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes, and even if I had tried to meet all six companies that were there, I still wouldn’t have been there for more than 30 minutes.

However, the small fairs are usually the very local ones and can be a good place to find a local job.

4) Not all fairs are created equal

Which is why some people think they’re an UTTER waste of time.

Size is not the only differentiator.

Some fairs are organized by professionals who structure the event to satisfy as many people as possible, and not just the event’s clients, the companies who paid to be there. There will be media coverage, a dedicated website, registration confirmation emails and more.

Other fairs are non-regular events created to respond to public demand (perceived or real), e.g. hosted in a church or community center. They won’t attract the same kind of companies or attendees as the more publicized fairs, so keep your expectations in check.

5) Fair organizers don’t do enough for attendees

While it is true that the hiring companies are the paying clients of the fair, without the non-paying job seekers, there would be no fair.

Fair organizers need to do more to respect attendees so that they are less likely to leave unsatisfied and never visit another job fair again. That includes navigating job seekers to the most relevant stands, giving them the tools for success (e.g. pens to submit application forms, option to print/photocopy resumes, etc.) and getting their feedback on how to make the next fair better.

Even just making the fair more upbeat would be a good thing.

6) Attendees just don’t do enough

This used to be me. I traveled 75 minutes from Jerusalem to a Tel Aviv job fair only to waste 30 minutes there before spending another 75 minutes getting home.

At Techeads, I asked most company reps if anyone had impressed them that day, or even just been memorable. Almost all of them replied in the negative.

That’s just wrong. Know your job fair success do’s and don’ts before you go.

7) Everyone loves candy but there’s a limit

Because fair organizers usually don’t do enough to lead job seekers to company stands, the companies try all sorts of tricks to get you in their line. Arguably most common- bowls of candy.

At the Techeads fair, every stand had a different bowl of candy. That’s a lot of candy. It was basically a candy fair.

I could almost imagine a company rep setting up their stand and pulling their hair out when they notice that a competitor had the same candy. I also wouldn’t be surprised if anything left the fair not feeling well because they ate too much candy.

8) Other schwag can be very cool too

There are only so many pens one person can take home. Luckily, some companies are more creative than that.

At Techeads, one company gave out fluorescent back-scratchers, a handy desk accessory (pun intended). Google is also famous for giving out cool little gadgets and magnets.

At the end of they day though, unless the giveaway is really special, it’s a sideshow to the real reason people line up at a job fair stand.

9) The psychology of lining up at the fair

One company at the Techeads fair had a very long line of job seekers waiting to speak to the company reps. The line was so long at one point that almost half the attendees in the room were in that line. So I decided to survey some of them to see why they didn’t visit the other stands and come back when the line was shorter.

Typical replies:

• “The line is longer here because the reps are talking to each job seeker and not just harvesting resumes” (they didn’t say ‘harvesting’, of course)
• “They have a lot of open positions”
• “It’s a good company to work for”
• “I just figured there was a reason why everyone else was lined up here”

10) QR codes are in

Everywhere I looked, there were QR codes at Techeads. On posters, on flyers, on business cards, even on a job seeker’s t-shirt (I regret not having gotten a picture of that).

But everywhere I looked, I didn’t see attendees using their smartphones to decode the QR codes and visit the embedded websites.

11) Fair sponsors: it’s not a shopping spree

People don’t come to job fairs expecting to spend money unless it’s to buy lunch or to pay for a ride there.

Regardless, there will usually be at least one fair sponsor trying to sell newspaper or magazine subscriptions, or books, or Internet access, or cellphone packages, and those stands seem to be the least active at fairs.

12) Best time of day to visit the fair

Depends on the hours of the fair relative to the local work culture but in general, it’s towards the END of the fair.

In Israel, people like to get up early. As a result, Techeads was busiest in the morning and so quiet in the early afternoon that they closed the fair an hour early, at 3pm instead of at 4pm. However, anyone who attended from 2pm – 3pm had easy access to any company they wanted, and company reps are more likely to remember someone met at the end of the day than at the beginning.

And it’s not like positions are going to be filled earlier during the fair anyway, so by coming later, you would still be able to get in your resume for a targeted position.

13) Too many people just going through the motions

The common complaint about job fairs is that they’re a waste of time. And for many people there, attendees AND company reps, they are.

On the one hand, most of the job seekers line up to apply at a company stand, maybe ask/answer a question and then shuffle off to another stand, until they ultimately leave.

On the other hand are company reps, there to do a job of taking in resumes, maybe ask/answer a question until the job seeker shuffles off to another stand.

Not enough job seekers trying to really take advantage of the fair, and frankly, not enough companies making an effort to impress candidates into following up after the fair.

QTRecruit™ to be launched later this month after undergoing extensive beta testing for almost a year.

“We were surprised no one else discovered this first,” founder Nir Atsman says.

“We thought of calling it something trendy like ‘iRecruit’ or something obvious like ‘ezRecruit’, but those names have already been taken, explains Yaron Cohen, the other co-founder. And since the manpower commander in our old army unit was a cutie, we thought “cutie = qt!”

Nir and Yaron are both former soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces’ world-renown Unit 8200, rumored to be (partially?) responsible for the Stuxnet virus that damaged Iranian nuclear installations in 2010. While serving in 8200, they designed QTRecruit’s precursor, a system that automatically decides where in the Israeli army to place new IDF recruits.

How does it work?

“Not to get too technical,” responds Yaron, “but the system spiders the Internet, like Google, gathering information about relevant candidates for a client’s open positions. In parallel, the client continuously feeds criteria into the system about the best kinds of candidates. Using some soon-to-be-patented artificial intelligence technologies and machine learning algorithms that we developed, the system learns over time how to find better candidates.”

What is the system’s placement success rate?

“Over 80% and improving all the time,” says Nir. “It hasn’t yet learned to predict how a good candidate will react when they have a competing offer from another company.”

What will happen to all the recruiters that will be replaced by the software?

Yaron answers “if you’re a recruiter, I’m sure everything will be ok,” later adding, “you’ll probably need to retrain but don’t worry, there are always jobs for good people.” He also points out that QTRecruit keeps a few ex-recruiters on staff to help them keep the system up-to-date.

For more information about QTRecruit™, visit the company website at qtrecruit.com. They are currently based in the Tel Aviv area.

I remember trying to write my first resume as a university student.

I was clueless.

But I knew it.

This was in 1994, and although the Internet existed and I had already created my first website, there was no easy way to look for resume inspiration on the Web back then. So I asked around, and did find some books in the McGill University library.

One section that seemed important to have, besides Experience and Education, was an Objective. What was my Objective? It seemed so obvious but I didn’t really have an impressive answer at the time, especially if I was giving my resume to company rep.s at a job fair or career fair without a specific position in mind.

It never occurred to me that in situations like that one, not every resume section made sense on my resume, and that I didn’t need to have an Objective on the resume at all.

So what about you: does your resume include these sections?
