In a dizzying job market, it’s important to keep your job search focused, especially when looking for roles within a niche industry. Finding an agile job may be easier if you know where to look.

This article provides five job boards you can integrate into your job search strategy for in-person & remote agile jobs.

Laying the Foundation for Your Agile Job Search

Job searches take time, but they can be more effective when we have a plan of action in place to support our surfing through job listings. 

Kerri Sutey, an executive coach & consultant, recommends leveraging your existing network throughout the job search journey. She suggests letting the people in your professional network know that you’re seeking a new career opportunity and reaching out to individuals to learn about the companies where they work. In a world that continues to move online, technology still can’t beat the personal nature of networking. 

In addition to focusing on community, Sutey recommends creating a short list of organizations you’d love to work for. “Explore the job boards of the companies you most admire to see what comes up,” she said. 

Adding these tactics to your job-search strategy maximizes your chances of landing an interview and, hopefully, accepting a job offer. 

5 Job Boards to Find In-Person & Remote Agile Jobs

Gone are the days when you can stroll into an office and ask to speak to the hiring manager. While this may still be true for a handful of businesses and agile organizations, most HR teams prefer the application process be conducted fully online. 

In tandem with networking, job boards are where most candidates will secure their next role. Below are five job boards that may include agile roles in their postings.

1. Wellfound

Wellfound, formerly AngelList Talent, is a job board that highlights roles within the startup and tech space. It features a significant number of product-related roles, including various jobs in development, engineering, and product management–all of which we know thrive with agile ways of working. But startups need to fill other functions on the team, so you’ll find plenty of marketing, sales, operations, recruiting, and finance listings. 

They do well in offering the ability to create a customizable candidate profile. From personal preferences regarding the size of the company you want to work for (seed-stage companies of 1-10 employees are an option) to identifying the type of work environment and goals in your next role for an aligned organizational culture fit, there are plenty of ways to define the working relationship terms on both ends. 

2. Crunchboard

TechCrunch is an online media outlet specializing in tech and startup news (including job market updates). The company's job board, Crunchboard, offers a variety of tech, startup, and engineering job listings. 

In addition to similar job listings found on the Wellfound job board, I found several agile openings on Crunchboard, from agile coach positions to agile project manager jobs. Be sure to utilize the ‘keyword’ search tool within the platform to see all open positions related to your search. 

3. LinkedIn

We couldn’t create a list of job boards without including LinkedIn. In fact, LinkedIn is perhaps the heaviest hitter on this list due to the thriving agile community on the platform. At the time of writing this article, a search of the keyword ‘agile’ yielded 151,515 job results–spanning roles from scrum master and product owner to agile coaching jobs. 

Beyond LinkedIn’s job board function, there are many ways to connect with people in the agile industry. Make connections with other professionals in the field, engage in meaningful conversations within posts, and join agile-related groups to make an impression. 

4. Indeed

Indeed is another familiar job board that is home to agile job listings. Without specifying region, the term ‘agile’ populated over 22,000 job results in the Indeed search engine, with roles like HR product manager, prompt engineer, and senior agile champion.

The job board also features a company reviews section, which can provide first-person insight into an organizational culture before applying. Furthermore, to prepare for your interview, navigate to the ‘find salaries’ tab to discover the salary expectations for your field and expertise by comparing salaried job listings within your industry.

5. Dice

Dice is a career board for tech professionals, with many agile job listings available. To view the details of each job description, you need to create a free profile. 

The filters within the Dice search engine make it easy to define the type of job you’re looking for–from job setting and employment type to specifications on whether you want to apply to jobs posted directly from an employer or through a recruiter. 

If working with a technology-driven company is your next move, Dice may be a good option to experiment with in your job search.

Consider integrating one or all of these job boards into your search for your next agile job. Additionally, we encourage job seekers to remember the power of conversation, whether with a recruiter, reaching out to an employee at a company you admire, or connecting with your alum network. 

Learning is an excellent way to refresh your resume and, more importantly, broaden your horizons while searching for a new opportunity. Follow us on LinkedIn to stay updated with our raffles, where you can enter to win a seat in one of our courses.
