You might try going to Monster.com or CareerBuilder.com and putting in those terms… to see what comes up. In my career searches, I’ve used the keyword search on those sites to see what came up. That will call up any listings where those terms are used… not just in the title, but anywhere in the description. Don’t limit the search area to your locale… let it just bring up whatever it can.
You can scan through these listings and see what fields are calling for people with your experience, and see what interests you. For example, using “web design” in a keyword search won’t only bring up IT postings, but job postings from other areas like nonprofits, hospitals, malls, etc… anyone that’s needing a web designer. As you find postings that catch your attention, make a note of them or, better yet, print them out. Then, figure out what it is about those positions that appeals to you. This might help you figure out where you want to direct your energies and apply your skills and degrees.
You may have heard about career counsellors suggesting you look through the classifieds in newspapers and circling any job posting that appeals to you… regardless of whether or not you have the necessary skills… as an exercise in identifying your interests. Going to the online job sites and doing keyword searches is essentially the same thing, just on a larger scale.
