Thriving In a Stalled Economy: Searching for Jobs: In Print

June 20, 2011

In this economy, many people are searching for jobs. One of the best resources out there is your local library! Mid-Continent Public Library provides multiple resources and personnel that can help you in your search for the perfect (or any) job!

One of most used techniques for job searches is the newspaper. While many people are no longer subscribing to local newspapers, the library still does. This source is a way for local and national businesses to advertise jobs, job fairs, and training seminars that can help you on your search.

Here are a few of the local newspapers that post job ads (print and online):

Kansas City Star - http://www.kansascity.com/
Dos Mundos - http://www.dosmundos.com/
Kansas City Hispanic News - http://www.kchispanicnews.com/
Call - http://www.kccall.com/
Kansas City Business Journal - http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/
Pitch - http://www.pitch.com/
