 That's where "Retail Design Institute "Job Site"" online 24/7 placement service on the Internet comes in for our members. Job Site gives our members and the retail community an access to an array of online resources for finding a job and provides a way to find and contact candidates who are seeking to employment.

From the desk of the Employment Committee:

Since I signed up with Monster.com and Careerbuilder.com all I get are these scam e-mails. If you post your resume on these sites, choose the "confidential" option for your online resume to hide your contact info and don't put your address, phone number, and e-mail on the resume that you upload. Employers can still contact you through the sites, but spammers won't have your personal info.

"Social networking technology is absolutely the best thing to happen to recruiting -- ever."

One of our favorite sites is Linkedin, a network of 8 million professionals spread across the world. Linkedin says users include executives from all of the Fortune 500 companies. Typing keywords into a search engine, you can scrape the entire network to dig out high-quality candidates that she can't find elsewhere.

This site can also help job hunters market themselves online by setting up profiles, listing work history and specific skills.

Linkedin started in 2003, and posted its first profit in March. It's among a number of business networking sites.

Like social networking sites, Linkedin has privacy controls. You can decide how much of your profile people see. Company co-founder Konstantin Guericke says users can also set the rules of engagement.

"We have a setting when you sign up for the site that says, Are you open to being contacted about job opportunities?" Guericke says. "And a fairly large percentage of the user base checks that. It doesn't mean they are now actively looking for a job. I think they are just being realistic. There is virtually, for everyone, there is a job that maybe pays more, is closer to your home, with a more prestigious company. And we have 130,000 recruiters on LinkedIn. So I think people feel it doesn't hurt to have a profile there."

But what really makes Linkedin helpful is that it allows users to share their online Rolodexes. Shally Steckerl used to hunt talent for Microsoft and is a leader in online recruiting. With Linkedin, he can find people faster using a vastly increased network of contacts.
