field such as engineering, medicine, human resources,

is at websites devoted to linking job hunters to resources
on the net.
An
excellent starting place is www.job-hunt.org,
where you will find links to specialized job search

good way to find information and job listings for specific
fields is to contact the professional association(s) affiliated
with your career field. For example, the Society of
Human Resource Managers (SHRM) provides a site for
its members, www.shrm.org.
If you
don't know what associations serve professionals in your field,
stop by the library and ask for a copy of the Encyclopedia
of Associations published by The Gale Group. It lists
more than 23,000 nonprofit associations and organizations.
On the web, an impressive collection of associations is provided
by the Internet Public Library, www.ipl.org.
