Looking for a new job? ZDNet might be able to help

We've just added job listings to the search on ZDNet, which means you can use our general search feature to find jobs, and you’ll also get a tag cloud of terms related to whatever you searched on, which may be useful in narrowing your search.

So if you search on a particular keyword in jobs, such as "Oracle", then you’ll get a list of some 2600-plus jobs. The tag cloud to the right will look something like the image below:



Clicking on your tag will narrow your search, for instance to 10g, Oracle dba, or Oracle forms. You'll notice that some tags aren’t terribly useful; this is an artefact of the fuzzy nature of the search we use; we reckoned it might be more useful – and certainly more interesting – to include all the tags rather than none of them. The size of the text is a rough measure of the importance of keywords, which is turn is based on the number of times a keyword appears, together with other metrics such as how high up in job ads it appears. Like I said, it's fuzzy. We hope you find it useful, though if you just want to search the old fashioned way you can still use our traditional Jobs Search.

And our IS team have asked me to point out that if you’re looking for a systems admin job, we currently have an opening here at the CNET Networks office in London supporting our Linux-based hosting systems. You can find out more about that job here.
