If you're always searching for the same things (e.g. great communication jobs in Moosonee or fundraising runs in Halifax), set up a saved search to find new results faster. Even better, set up an email alert to hear about new results daily. Here's how:
From the Career Centre (or any page with a "Login" button), click the "Login" button.
If you aren't already registered, check out our tutorial on "How to register as a seeker."
1. Enter your email address.
2. Enter your password.
3. Click the "Log In" button.
If you can't remember your password, click the "Forgot Password?" link.
On the "Searches/Alerts" tab of your Desk, click the type of listing that you'd like to search. We'll search Jobs in this example.
1. Enter search criteria on the Quick Search or Advanced Search tabs, or Browse listings by individual categories.
2. Click the "Search" button after you have entered your search criteria.
From the Search Results page, if you think "Ya, these are the sorts of listings that I'd like to hear about", click the "Save Search" button at the top or bottom of the page.
If the search results are too broad (wow -- 500!) or narrow (sorry, no listings match), click the "New Search" button and change your search settings.
Unless, of course, you really do only want to hear about Admin Coordinator jobs in Carbonear NL that pay $300,000+ per year. If you're that discerning, continue on with the next step.
After you click the "Save Search" button on the Search Results page, a small window will pop-up on your screen.
1. Enter a name for your saved search (e.g. "Friendly visiting volunteer", "fundraising runs", or "dream job") in the "Save Search As" field.
2. Review the search criteria that you have selected. If you want to change anything, click Cancel and update your search selections from the search page.
3. Want e-mail alerts about new listings that match your search criteria? If so, leave the "Email Results Daily" box checked. If you'd rather not receive email alerts, and want to manually check results, uncheck the "Email Results Daily" check box.
4. Click "Save" to save your search criteria to your Desk.
After you have successfully saved your search and email alert criteria, you'll see a small window pop-up, confirming that your listings have been saved to the "Searches/Alerts" tab on your Desk.
Click the "Close" button to return to your Search Results list.
To return to your Desk anytime, just click the "My Desk" link in the top right corner of your screen on any page.
Note: if you aren't logged in, the buttons will say "Login | Register".
When you're on your Desk page, scroll down to the "Saved Searches and Email Alerts" section.
Here are some highlights of how you can manage your Saved Searches and Email Alerts:
1. Going on vacation or found a new job? Turn all of your alerts off by clicking the "Off" button.
2. Change the delivery format of your emails from HTML to Plain Text. Just click the button beside the version you prefer.
3. Results: Click the "Results" icon to pull up the latest results that match your saved search criteria.
4. Edit: Click the "Edit" icon to open the search form and edit/update your search criteria.
5. Delete: Not using a saved search or e-mail alert anymore? Click the "Delete" icon to get rid of it.
6. Email Alert check boxes: Want to turn an individual email alert on or off because you don't need it right now? Uncheck the "Email Alert" box beside the individual alert (remember, to turn them all on or off, use the button in instruction #1 above).
