Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 1 to 5.
If you are looking for a job, the first thing you should do is to ask your friends, family
and former colleagues if they know any job opportunities in your area of interest. You can also
check the help-wanted section of your local newspaper. Trade magazines and smaller
community newspapers often publish job opening as well. Many websites post job
opportunities. You can not only use websites whose main purpose is to provide job listings,
but also search the sites of professional associations in your field and those of businesses you
would like to work for. These sites often have a web page devoted to job openings. Much like
a trade show, a job fair brings prospective employers together in one place. You can talk to
representatives from several different companies all on the same day. Job fairs are often listed
in the newspapers, in the job section. Look into job placement services in your area. They offer
many services, including career counseling, resources to fine job openings and a place where
you can work. Otherwise, businesses specializing in job placement services are often listed in
the phone book. Make use of your local library, where you can access newspapers and trade
magazines that publish job openings. Many libraries offer internet access, so you can browse
job-posting websites for opportunities in other parts of the country, if you’re interested in
relocating.
