Here are the 10 best IT and technology job search sites so your company can make the best choice on posting your IT and technology jobs or searching for the best IT and technology jobs.

In our listing of the best IT and technology job boards, we considered website traffic, unique visitors, the number of resumes or members, total number of jobs, total number of technology and information technology jobs and the number of companies listing jobs. Additionally, we polled over 100 Information Technology recruiters and asked them what their favorite job boards to use were and why. We have update the numbers for 2020.

Those that didn’t use it regularly also spoke of how they used their “internal database” as their favorite tool. Those are not exactly the types of recruiters who will be around in 10 years.
