Ohio Job Prospector

Job Prospector is a research site, not a job posting site. The career information it provides is meant to provide users with an "Inside Look" at employers that is not available to most job seekers. Since they list career profiles and not job postings, the manner in which you respond to these employers is very important.

If sending a resume, please be sure to explain that you researched the particular employer and are inquiring about potential career opportunities based on that research. This will help the employer understand why you have sent them your resume. It will also help to emphasize your initiative and give you the best chance for success!

Update: I figured out that this site is not free, but you can have access to it at a number of public institutions (libraries, universities, and the Montgomery County Job Center). These organization have their own password, so you will have to use one of their computers that has already been logged into the Job Prospector. So, go there and use it!
