Most turn to internet for jobs

A survey by online job advertising company Seek says more people are turning to the internet first when job-hunting.

According to data by Newspoll, 47 per cent of people said the internet was their preferred means of looking for a job, up 7 per cent since April and the first time that internet job sites have moved ahead of print.

In September last year, the ANZ jobs series also noted that there were more jobs online than in print.
