Great Job Boards You Might Not Know: Part Two.

We hope our first post on job boards was helpful and you’ve uncovered some good new places to find your next dream job.  

This week’s list from Pivot Journeys is specific to different industries; very helpful if you’re looking to switch careers and figure out where to look for different jobs!

And if you are thinking about switching sectors, take a look at the postings on these boards and see if you’re interested in the types of day-to-day work that you’d be doing in a similar role but in a different industry. This will help you confirm you are interested in exploring those industries, and will help you narrow down what type of role you’re looking for that will be most interesting to you.

Without further ado…. Here’s part two of our list!

 

FOOD INDUSTRY - GOOD FOOD JOBS

We have a lot of Pivot Journeys participants that contemplate a career switch into the culinary sector.

They also have a job board that lists everything from short-term copywriter or photo editing gigs, to longer project positions like social media marketing manager or data research positions.
