Users and reviewers say Dice.com is the best job site for positions in the information technology industry. Reviewers like this site's straightforward interface, and say industry-specific niche sites in general work better than mega-sites like Yahoo! HotJobs or Monster.com in matching up employers with job seekers. Dice also offers advice on writing resumes and obtaining IT certification, as well as a variety of discussion forums. Experts say you should utilize several sites when conducting a job search. The mega-site CareerBuilder.com is one of the most popular.
Forbes gives Dice.com a Best of the Web award, while PCMag.com and About.com's guide to web searching recommend Dice for job searchers seeking employment in the information technology industry.
