This may sound like a weird question, but are there any websites that specifically list job openings on Long Island? Whenever I use a job search online, it mostly shows me jobs in NYC, even if I type in an LI zip code. I don't know if it's because there are no job openings outside of NYC or if it's because LI lists jobs elsewhere?

Just curious about what's out there.

PS - I've used Indeed.com, Dice.com, etc.

Careerbuilder & Linkedin all allow searches to specify a zip code and a radius of proximity to that zip code.

If you want a low level retail job, Ed Mangano runs useless job fairs every few months for Nassau County residents.

There is also a county run mostly useless website, Nassau Works.

Are you looking in specific industries/sectors? Perhaps an industry specific site would be better to use.

It sucks they never post salary ranges. I've already got convenience, so a lot more money is really the only motivating factor for me to get another job. Do I want to go through rounds of interviews before being told I'd be making a lot less than I expected especially being on LI?

It's very much a tough decision bc u dont want to come off as only in it for the $$ but you also dont want to waste anyone's time. What I can suggest is putting your salary req's on the resume maybe? I do not know if this is frowned upon but that way at least a co will know what you are seeking.

if you know people in the industry/company you are looking at you might have more insight. i think it is always good to meet with people, even if you are not sure about the position. putting salary requirements on your resume is not a good move in my opinion.
