2. LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/)
OK, LinkedIn is not a sports-specific job board, but the fact is that there is no other place with that many job offers from all industries – including sports – on the web. LinkedIn is not only a great tool for you to find a job, but it’s arguably the best online platform for recruiters to find you! If you don’t have a LinkedIn profile, go and make one now. If you have it, make sure it is updated and that it follows LinkedIn best practices. Check out the iWorkinSport interview with Adriene Bueno to find out how to stand out!
1. iWorkinSport (https://www.iworkinsport.com/jobs)
I guess you saw that coming, right? The first reason for us to have iWorkinSport.com’s job board as number one is simple: We made the list! :-) …But joking aside, in our view, what puts iWorkinSport at the top of the list is the fact that our job board was created as a hub to aggregate the best offers of all those sites from this list (and more).
iWorkinSport offers an automated job board which aggregates all offers from several sites listed above, making us the best place for you to START your search. When you click on one of the aggregated jobs, that will take you to the original job board – this way, our automated job board also serves as a way to promote the hard work done by other companies in order to service job seekers around the world. We appreciate every single one of them.
In addition to the jobs that are automatically aggregated from other job boards, our team also searches the web and curates the best offers for you on a daily basis.
So, what do you think of our list? Do you agree with it?
