Looking for a Job? Websites to help find your Dream Sports Job
In 2013 a majority of our networking is done online, and now searching and applying for a job can be done on the net as well. There are numerous outlets for sports jobs online. After my research I discovered a large number of them, some more useful then others. These are the 3 major online sports job databases online with my own personal analysis of each.
- http://www.teamworkonline.com/- most extensive online sports job database.
- Search by area code; locate jobs in any area code across US
- Lists Jobs by category, How long they have been available, requirements for position
- You apply via email twitter, LinkedIn they will send email back if interested in interview or further application process
- Updated every hour, existing jobs that are taken seem to be removed from site in timely fashion, So all positions listed are truly open.
- Daily front page update board, listing newest jobs available
*I applied for job with Galaxy for a summer marketing position and a Job in Rochester NY for a marketing position with the Rochester Knight hawks I have not heard back as of yet.
- http://www.sportsjobfinder.com/- Much more generic sports job data base.
- Seems to be updated every other day with a lot of non existing jobs still being listed.
- Search by keyword but cannot be that specific or search will not be successful .
- Have to truly know where and what you want, hard to browse and find position because it is so scattered. Best option is to search by “State”
3. http://sportscareersinstitute.com/sports-jobs-listings.html- Site is most generic of all three
- Specific to college students/ jobs in college sports
- More of a guide, compared to a job listing datebas
- Extremely helpful If you are trying to work for college athletics.
