Hey job seekers! The folks at the US Department of Labor (DOL) want your opinions in the Tools for America's Job Seeker Challenge! They're compiling a list of today's best online job search tools, and need you to vote for the ones that deserve recognition. The challenge ends tomorrow (Friday, January 15, 2010), so don't miss out!

Here are the nitty-gritty details from the challenge site:

"[The DOL has] compiled as many online tools as possible to help America’s job seekers quickly and easily connect with jobs. Now we need you to test-drive, comment on, and recommend the tools you like best!

We’ll publish the highest ranking tools on our websites and encourage the nationwide network of One-Stop Career Centers to make them available to the more than 20 million job seekers they serve each year."

Want to participate? Simply go to the DOL's Tools for America’s Job Seekers Challenge web site and vote for the job search tools and career sites you find most helpful. Here’s how:
