Sacramento Jobs

Job Boards and Other Resources

SacramentoCareers.com maintains lists of current job openings in the Sacramento Area. The State Employment Development Department also maintains a web site, CALJobs, linking job seekers and employers.

H. L. Yoh is an outstanding technical / engineering staffing firm with a strong Sacramento presence. I very much like the recruiting team there. Those of you in high tech fields will naturally also use national job boards such as Dice and Monster.com. More local recruiters are located online at SacramentoRecruiter.com.

The Sacramento Business Journal publishes an excellent "book of lists" that contains enough major local businesses to wear out anyone's cover-letter typing fingers. Last but not least is the Sacramento Bee's Online Job Board, featuring classified ads, links to who's hiring, and the like.

Major Employers

As the state capital, naturally a major employer in Sacramento is the State of California. The California State Personnel Board site offers information and resources on State civil service jobs.

Major private employers in the Sacramento area include high tech firms such as Intel (in Folsom) and Hewlett Packard (in Roseville), and OTS (El Dorado Hills) The health care industry is also well represented by firms such as Sutter Health, Vision Service Plan, and Health Net.
