Clipping Ads is so “yesterday”

Job Search Log offers you a free location to store the ads you are interested in applying for. You don’t have to be using a specific job search engine, be on unemployment, you can live anywhere and there are no restrictions on the number of ads you can create.

There are two simple ways you can start adding ads to Job Search Log. One is to add them directly into the Ad Entry Form . All that is required to create the ad record is to copy and paste the location of the job posting (URL), title of the job and the text job ad into the Ad page. Once you save the page, it will immediately be available for your viewing in the Saved Ads page .

The other method to add ads into Job Search Log is through the JSL Bookmarklet. Drag the link JSL Ad Bookmarklet to your links bar. Then from any job post you are interested in applying for, select the text of the ad and click the JSL Ad bookmark. The ad, url and title of the page will be saved to your profile and you will receive notification that an ad was saved through an email message. The best thing about it is that Job Search Log does not display, the ad is added behind the scenes. Click here to see more information about the Job Search Log Bookmarklet.

Like every page in Job Search Log, only you will see the ads you’ve saved since they are tied to your private Job Search Log profile.
