How to Google for direct work

[Oscar]

I've been Googleing for direct opportunities. It seems agencies and bodyshops are spamming posts, so for every indirect opportunity there is around 100 posts, and every direct opportunity is drowning.

I try to enter terms like "-client -site:jobser.vom" but there seems to be to many jobcites, agencies and bodyshops.

What I want to do is reach the actual end-company or company running a project. Typically they will put an ad on their own site. Also they probably prefer specific jobsites, but I haven't found out which ones.

Any ideas

Don't we all....

I am sure that if we all knew the answer to that one, agencies would go out of business.

Oh, and I/we wouldn't tell you either.. Why give secrets like that away to the competition.

If they have permie opportunities they willl, very rare for contracts - they'll usually put those out to those agents on their PSLs (that's what they're there for after all).

That's the information you really need to find.

Write a script that reads the ULRs of every employer who has a website with a jobs or careers section and search that.
