A selection of Telework/Telecommuting sites, with a UK bias.
Retail bankshave packages of services for
small businesses, including concessions for the first year or more of business.
Other resources are listed below.
One form of business is franchising. The following links provide information
on available franchises.
One is advised to research a company before applying for a job/attending an
interview. The following links are resources for such research. For other
sources of information see my Financial
Press and Company Informationlinks.
Otherwise information can be found in directories in public libraries, from the
Financial Times
Company Reports Club, and by using Internet
Directories and Search Engines
Pages of employment related links may be provided by directories,
recruitment agencies and individuals. A selection of such, with a UK bias, is
provided.
Job search sites typically provide some subset of a searchable jobs
database, a CV distribution service, and the notification of suitable vacancies
by email. They often provide other information, e.g. agency directories or
advice on CV writing.
There are now a considerable number of job search sites available within the
UK (and internationally). Most are focussed on the
information technology industry, but a few have other foci, or aim at the whole
job market. Job search facilities are also available on some agency web sites. It seems likely to me that there will be a
shake out in this sector in the future.
There are a variety of business models followed by job search sites. Some
appear to be run free, most are run on advertising, while others are financed
by subscription or introduction fees.
