Alerts and Feeds

Science Careers offers a variety of alerts and RSS feeds that help you keep
track of new job openings to investigate and follow up on our articles and advice to
help develop your career.

Job Alerts

In our job search area, you can sign up for job agent e-mail alerts that keep an ear
to the ground for positions that match your job search criteria, and that send you a
notification when something turns up. It's one of numerous benefits of creating an
account with Science Careers; others include the ability to store multiple
resumes and cover letters tuned to particular positions for quick action on
applications, and the ability to post your resume for employers to assess.

RSS Feeds

If you're a regular visitor to our site, or just drop by from time to time, you may
notice the little orange rectangles with the letters "XML" or "RSS" on some of our
pages. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it provides a way to automatically
capture our headlines for off-line reading or display on your own Web site.

With RSS you can display headlines from our Career Development section -- see our
list of current feeds below -- and those other news providers, on your computer display
with software called newsreaders. Newsreaders take RSS feeds in XML, a machine
language, and format them in HTML, used for human-readable Web pages. With RSS, you can
also grab our Web content and display it on your own Web site (legally), with the text
updating automatically as we update the feeds.
