With the job application season around the corner once again, I thought it might be helpful to share a few relatively new resources spearheaded by astronomers, for astronomers. The AAS Job Register is starting to branch out to advertise more than just academic jobs, but here are additional resources to help you access the broader range of jobs we have the skills to excel in.
AstroBetter advice post on how to organize a Career Panel at your home institution
Facebook Group -- Jobs for Astronomers
LinkedIn Group of 'former astronomers who now work outside of academia'

Additional resources that have been around for awhile:
AAS Career Resource Page
Academic and non-academic career networks
If you know of additional useful resources, please post them!
Note: Besides serving on the CSWA, I am the liaison with the AAS Employment Committee (EC). Thanks to Kelle Cruz, new chair of the AAS EC, for sharing these!
