Looking for work is hard. But you can make it easier by giving yourself some stocking stuffers like these:

Stocking Stuffer 1: 12 Online Gifts for Job Seekers. Last year, we compiled a list of a dozen free online resources for job seekers. These online gifts are awesome tools for anyone conducting a job search. Whether you have a job and are looking for a better one, or are between jobs, our 12 Online Gifts for Job Seekers post makes an excellent stocking stuffer to give yourself.

Stocking Stuffer 2: Chimby. If you're looking for information and/or opinion on a particular topic, Chimby can make your search a little easier by letting you search more than 400 career advice sites (including The Daily Machete) at once. This is a great stocking stuffer for EVERY job seeker!

Stocking Stuffer 3: PortableApps Suite. Carry your favorite computer programs with you and use them on any Windows-based computer. This free suite of programs is stored on your flash drive, iPod or other portable storage medium so you can bring all your data and apps with you where ever you go. And when you leave, so does all of your personal data. You don't have to pay a cent for the PortableApps Suite. It has NO spyware nor advertisements. What's not to love about this stocking stuffer?!?

Stocking Stuffer 4: Paid Opportunities. If you're looking for a way to make money online without investing a cent, then Paid Opportunities is the site for you. Tori (the blog's author) gives you the straight scoop by telling you about opportunities you've never heard of that can make you money. She doesn't pull any punches, either. If a site is scam, then she'll tell you so without sugar-coating it. If you're serious about making some money on the side, then you should give yourself the stocking stuffer of Paid Opportunities.

Stocking Stuffer 5: LifeHacker. This is a great stocking stuffer. If you want to do something easier, then LifeHacker probably has the answer. It has a nice mix of tech and non-tech articles; posts run the gamot from what foods you should eat to adjust your moods, to the latest killer app to make your life more efficient. Including looking for work. Don't miss out on this stocking stuffer!
