Job Sites: SimplyHired.com
In our attempt to build an exhaustive list of resources to explore in search of a home based job today we review SimplyHired.com – Job Search Made Simple. It is a comparatively new service (started back in 2005) compared to its well known competitors on the market of job sites.
SimplyHired has millions of jobs from thousands of job boards, classifieds, and company sites. The database is the heart of the service – the company claims they list more jobs than any other similar service. SimplyHired can become your one stop destination in your long search of places to secure a home job – no need to browse hundreds of job sites checking their listings of home jobs. Also using one interface you save time on getting rid of duplicate postings that are often listed on numerous sites.
You can browse the jobs by locations, industries and occupations. But the feature that is of more value and interest to us is ‘Advanced Search’ as we would like to make a targeted search of available home, freelance and that kind of jobs.
You can create a free account to keep track of your job search, save jobs, research salary, subscribe to the option to get job notices by e-mail, etc.

Do the companies outsource all work now? I could not imagine some of the above could be outsourced.
My search of home jobs returned 171297 matches. But many returned results are irrelevant (from our point of view as we are interested in ‘home based job’). For instance, Home Depot Inc. has 5932 positions that are listed as ‘home jobs’.
Your solution? Either browse through these numerous irrelevant results searching for the opportunities you need or refine your search. As soon as I changed the keyword phrase to ‘home based job’ results went down to 36622 matches and I have got more relevant listings.
Summary
SimplyHired.com is a huge job market that definitely deserves to be on your list. You can research many opportunities using one website, keep track and arrange the job search process properly. ‘Search’ function and other extra options (i.e., you see the job site the position was originally posted on; you also see the age of each job listing) make it a real pleasure to work with the service.
