This will depend a lot on your skill set and career goal. For computer-related...
http://computerjobs.com
Then there is CraigsList....
http://craigslist.org
The CraigsList classifieds are split into two sections... job listings are paid for by the businesses seeking to fill jobs, in multiple categories.
Then you have the "Gigs" sections, which are usually temporary contractual jobs, sometimes leading to regular employment.
One good possibility as you're hunting... build up your resume by taking "Gig" work from CraigsList... but arrange payment through Rent-a-Coder (as it provides protection for both the employer and the contractor).
As you build a "work history" of satisfied clients on Rent-a-Coder, it will be something else that employers can look at to gauge your skills and effectiveness.
Finally, your responsiveness to CraigsList postings will be greatly increased by the use of RSS reader software. With it, you can set your search Criteria on CraigsList, then get automatic pop-up notifications whenever there is work available that meets your criteria.
For example, I get an automatic instant-message-style pop-up whenever there is a new gig posted in Los Angeles containing PHP, MySQL, Flash, or Dreamweaver.
If you're using Windows, then some good choices (both free) are AlertBear, and FeedReader.

Try Craig's list ... just type craigslist.com on your URL line and hit the go arrow ... find your city/locale, and hit that, then go to the 'job listings' and find the kind of work you want and hit that ... you should get some good listings in your area, for doing ANYTHING. Both Career Builder and Monster are 'good' but they tend to be for the 'white collar' worker with a degree or a lot of experience, and I'm guessing that you want a job that requires 'less' for whatever reason. Also go to the website for the newspapers in your area and click the link to their 'want ads' and go to the 'jobs' part. You can look in the 'real' newspaper, but frequently the 'online sites' have MORE information, which makes the 'ads' better online than in the 'real' papers.

Classified sections of Newspapers often have websites ie. StarTribune.com (Minnesota) has a Jobs section where you can setup Queries for the type of jobs you are looking for or do searches of their databases. Get the names of the newspapers in teh cities you are interested in and they may have similar sites. Google papers in the cities you are intersted in and then check those sites out.
Also, the Department of Labor in the states where you live or where you might want to move to, may have a Resume Writing, Cover Letter Writing and Job Posting website page that you can use. Create an account and go to town.

Depends on the type of job that you are looking for. Most local papers have classified ads, that is a start. All government agencies have websites (or try www.usajobs.opm.gov) or see if there is a local one for your area. I live in Baltimore, MD, and we have workbaltimore.com. There are other sites like craigslist and yahoo. You can even go to your local unemployment office, they can provide you with some.
