Green Resources For Job Seekers

by Darlene McDaniel on April 14th, 2008

Earth Day is coming on April 21, 2008. In honor of Earth Day, the bloggers at Tree Hugging Family have enlisted other bloggers to write blog posts focused on “Green”. Because my blog focus is on interviewing and the hiring process, I choose to write about Green Jobs. If you are focused on the environment and you are interested in working for a green company or starting your own green business, then GreenBusiness.net may be a resource that will help you move forward.

GreenBusiness.net is a community of entrepreneurs and professionals who understand the unique challenges and opportunities working or running a green business. There is a monthly membership fee of $12.00. You will have to determine whether the $12.00 is a good investment for you. There are lots of testimonials on the site and the story of how GreenBusiness.net began.

I wrote a post back in February highlighting one of our business channel blogs - Greener Assets. Alison shared a list of resources available for “green” job seekers. Here is a reprint of that list! Enjoy Earth Day!

Resources for Green Job Seekers:

Green Dream Jobs: from Sustainable Business, is a great database of jobs from companies all over the globe with the bulk concentrated in the US. This site is a great place to connect with environmentally conscious employers.

Ruston WHEB: a specialist search firm, dedicated to strengthening executive and non-executive teams for companies, investors and advisers operating across environmental and clean energy markets.

Environment Job: This is a UK website, but there are listings for employment, volunteer opportunities and events all over the world.

GreenBiz: is a great resource for keeping up with the green economy and the job seeker section on this site is great. It draws from international companies and attracts some of the best employers and job seekers around.

BSR: Business for Social Responsibility is the place to find a wide range of jobs with companies that have a focus on social and environmental responsibility.

One World: If you are looking to make the world a better place, One World is a great place to find jobs and volunteer positions that will let you do just that. Very international, you can search Ethical Jobs, Volunteer Opportunities and find Ethical Careers Resources.

TreeHugger: Arguably one of the most influential environmental blogs on the internet, TreeHugger gets a bevy of job listings from companies that walk the walk on social and environmental responsibility.
