There’s a job-related search engine called Indeed that is basically Google for jobs.  To use it just go to the site, type in your parameters (two fields are provided, one for describing the position you’re looking for and one for a geographic area you’re looking for) and faster than you can say "You’re hired" a listing of jobs will appear.  Just like other search engines Indeed ranks the jobs by relevance and it pulls the job listings from thousands of sources.

Indeed has also just launched an interactive map that shows which cities in the US have the most job listings per capita.  My old hometown, Washington, DC comes in second behind San Jose.  Sadly, none of the cities in the NC Triad area (Winston-Salem, Greensboro or High Point) shows up, but that’s not a surprise when you consider that the region’s traditional industries are textiles, furniture and tobacco.  On the other hand Charlotte, just an hour south of us, is ranked 19th.
