Re: PT/Contract Writing Sites

[Gene Kim-Eng <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

I'm using the same sites I was using before I retired (LinkedIn, Indeed, 
Craigslist, etc.).

When I retired and moved to Portland I revised my online profiles to 
include the entirety of my work experience, including all that stuff 
from more than 10 years back that I used to leave out when I didn't want 
to announce to the world how old I really was, put a note at the top 
that I was open to P/T or short-term contracts only and ticked the 
matching "looking for" profile check boxes. I also sent resumes saying 
the same to the larger recruiting shops in the area (Adecco, Aerotech, 
Vanderhouwen).

Since then I've been getting anywhere from one or two to a dozen emails 
a weeks. mostly from multiple recruiters trying to fill the same couple 
of contract openings at one or another of this area's half-dozen largest 
tech/manufacturing companies. Pretty much all of the traffic originates 
from my LinkedIn and Indeed profiles and from the resume I occasionally 
republish to the local Craigslist.

It's probably been five years now since the last time I applied to a job 
I saw posted on any site.
